\nAbstract:
\nSin ce their discovery in 1991\, carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have remained attract ive in both fundamental research and industrial application studie s\, owing to their outstanding mechanical\, electrical\, and ther mal properties. They have also been regarded as a disruptive material with the potential to reshape the world. For a long time\, two major challenge s have hindered the practical application of CNTs: the wafer-scale prepara tion of high-purity semiconducting single-walled carbon nanotubes (s-SWCNT s) and their integration into electronic devices\, and the effective trans fer of the exceptional mechanical properties of individual CNTs into macro scopic assemblies. Our team has long been focused in the controlle d synthesis and applications of carbon nanotubes. Significant pro gress has been made in the selective separation of high-purity semiconduct ing and chirality-specific carbon nanotubes\, as well as in the continuous gas-phase synthesis and large-scale application of CNTs. Therefore\, I wi ll introduce our recent progress in the following aspects:
\n1) Prec ise sorting of carbon nanotubes and rational modulation of their electroni c properties\;
\n2) Continuous assembly of CNTs into high - strength and high-conductivity fibers\;
\n3) Large-scale preparation and app lications of high-conductivity carbon nanotube films\;
\n4) Summary and prospects.
\nShort bio: Prof. Qingwen Li is a Professor\, Ph.D. supervisor\, and former Dep uty Director of the Suzhou Institute of Nano-Tech and Nano-Bionics\, Chine se Academy of Sciences. She received her Ph.D. in Chemistry from Tsinghua University in 2000 and subsequently worked at Peking University\, the Univ ersity of Cambridge\, and Los Alamos National Laboratory on carbon nanotub e synthesis and applications. Her current research focuses on semi conducting carbon nanotubes\, carbon-based electronic devices\, macroscopi c nanocarbon assemblies\, and functional composites. She has publ ished more than 280 papers in leading journals\, including Nature\, Nature Materials\, Nature Nanotechnology\, Advanced Materials\, JACS\, and ACS N ano\, with over 35\,000 citations. She also serves as an associate editor for Carbon and Materials Science and Engineering: R: Reports.
