报告摘要：
Conjugated polyelectrolytes (CPEs) are polymers that feature a p-conjugated backbone that is functionalized with ionic charged units. These polymers feature the opto-electronic functionality characteristic of the conjugated backbone, with solubility in water. In addition, CPEs are polymer amphiphiles, and as such they undergo self-assembly to form nanostructured polyelectrolyte multilayer films at interfaces, and spontaneous self-assembly into nanoscale aggregates in aqueous solution. The talk will overview work which has characterized the structure and properties of the nanoscale CPE assemblies, and describe their application in hybrid solar cells and in light activated antimicrobials.

个人简介：
Kirk Schanze earned his B.S. in Chemistry from Florida State University in 1979 and his Ph.D. in Chemistry from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in 1983. He was appointed a Miller Postdoctoral Fellow at the University of California, Berkeley, from 1984-1986 and began his independent faculty career at the University of Florida in 1986. Schanze was University Distinguished Professor and Prominski Professor of Chemistry at the University of Florida until 2016. He is currently the Robert A. Welch Distinguished University Professor at the University of Texas at San Antonio. He was a Senior Editor of the ACS journal Langmuir from 2000 – 2008. Since 2008, Schanze is Editor-in-Chief of ACS Applied Materials & Interfaces, the ACS journal focused on chemistry and engineering of applications-focused research in materials and interfaces.
Schanze’s research is focused on the field of light-matter interactions in molecular, polymer and materials systems. His group has developed and studied materials with applications in luminescence, chemo- and bio-sensing, light emitting diodes, solar cells and solar fuels. He has authored or co-authored 300 peer-reviewed articles on basic and applied research topics, with a primary focus on organic and organometallic materials chemistry, and is named in 20 patents or disclosures.
