SUMMARY:Simple Approaches to Complex Polymers for Optoelectronics: from Nan
 omaterials to Devices - Zachary Hudson (UBC)
DESCRIPTION:Simple Approaches to Complex Polymers for Optoelectronics: from
  Nanomaterials to DevicesZachary HudsonDepartment of ChemistryUnivesity of
  British Columbia
\nAbstract: Techniques for the assembly of hierarchical 
 nanostructures from soft matter have opened the door to many new applicati
 ons of nanotechnology. Despite these achievements\, synthetic methods in n
 anotechnology that rely on self-assembly continue to face several challeng
 es. Most importantly\, self-assembly can be highly dependent on conditions
  such as solvent and temperature\, which must be kept within certain range
 s if the integrity of the nanomaterial is to be maintained. Here we descri
 be new approaches to the synthesis of functional\, multicompartment nanoma
 terials based on covalent polymer chemistry. First\, methods are described
  for the controlled-radical polymerization of monomers based on p-type\, n
 -type and luminescent organic semiconductors\, with conversions >95% while
  maintaining dispersities
\nBio: Dr. Zachary M. Hudson is an Assistant Pro
 fessor and Canada Research Chair in Sustainable Chemistry at the Universit
 y of British Columbia. Zac was born in Ottawa in 1986\, and completed his 
 B.Sc. at Queen’s University in Kingston\, Ontario. He remained at Queen
 ’s to pursue a Ph.D. in Inorganic Chemistry under the supervision of Pro
 f. Suning Wang\, focusing on the development of luminescent materials for 
 organic electronics. During his Ph.D. he also held graduate fellowships at
  Jilin University in China as well as Nagoya University in Japan. He then 
 moved to the University of Bristol as a Marie Curie Postdoctoral Fellow wi
 th Prof. Ian Manners\, followed by a second Postdoctoral Fellowship at the
  California Nanosystems Institute at the University of California\, Santa 
 Barbara with Prof. Craig Hawker. He currently leads a research program exa
 mining a variety of questions in synthetic materials chemistry\, ranging f
 rom the development of solutions for energy-efficient displays and light s
 ources to the self-assembly of electronic materials on the nanoscale.
