TOPIC: Towards Emerging Properties and Applications of Organic Cocrystals  
SPEAKER: 张其春 教授，南洋理工大学材料科学与工程学院
TIME：3月22日 (周五) 上午10:00点 
LOCATION: 化学A楼518会议室
INVITER: 张帆教授，麦亦勇教授

Abstract:
Organic cocrystals based on noncovalent intermolecular interactions (week interactions) have aroused enormous interest due to their unpredicted and versatile chemicophysical properties and charming applications (Figure 1). 

In this presentation, I will highlight recent emerging researches of organic cocrystals on reducing aggregation-caused quenching (ACQ) effect, tuning light emission, ferroelectricity, self-healing behavior, switching transport characteristic, and the formation of co-crystals through chemical reaction of organic particles in water. 

We also summarize great progresses made in this field including revealing the structure-property relationships and developing unusual exciting properties.
