On the occasion of the 80th birthday of Professor Yitai Qian: Celebrating 60 years of innovation in solid-state chemistry and nanoscience

Abstract

has committed his entire career to the development of solid-state chemistry and nanoscience in China. Prof. Qian is recognized for his pioneering contributions to the development of emerging high-Tc superconducting materials, and the development of solvothermal methodology for the synthesis of a wide range of low-dimensional nanomaterials. Beyond the landmarking scientific advancements he has made in his own trailblazing research, Prof. Qian has directly mentored more than 100
