Mercouri G. Kanatzidis of Northwestern University celebrates the 30-year anniversary of his independent career as well as his 60th birthday this year. As a tribute to Kanatzidis’ renowned career, Inorganic Chemistry Frontiers and guest editors Qichun Zhang (Nanyang Technological University), Jennifer A. Aitken (Duquesne University) and Gerasimos Armatas (University of Crete) are delighted to publish a special web collection to marks these exciting occasions.
In this themed collection, a selection of articles that have been authored by researchers who have been closely associated with Kanatzidis – as students, post-doctoral researchers and colleagues – are featured, covering a diverse spectrum of topics within the fields of materials science and inorganic chemistry.
The full collection of article is FREE to read upon registration till 30 August 2017. Below is a selection of articles highlighted in the collection. Hope you find them enjoyable to read!
