We are delighted to announce that Professor Rongchao Jin of Carnegie Mellon University has joined Nanoscale as an Associate Editor.
Prof. Jin’s research covers the synthesis, characterization, and applications of nanoparticles. His group develop chemical methods for synthesizing new types of inorganic nanoclusters and nanocrystals, hybrid nano-architectures, and inorganic/polymer nanocomposites. He is also very interested in the applications of nanoparticles in catalysis, optics, chemo- and bio-sensing, and photovoltaics.
Professor Jin was co-Guest Editor on the recent Nanoscale themed issue on Metallic Clusters which, according to his Editorial “offers a snapshot of the very diverse research work being carried out on metal clusters” from fundamental to applied research.
