演讲内容简介
Science and technology such as the industrial and agricultural revolutions have profoundly transformed the world. Dr. Chu will describe recent consequences related to the use of fossil fuels, and the rapidly changing energy landscape before turning to how energy efficiency and clean energy sources are becoming the low cost option to the energy needs.
演讲嘉宾:朱棣文博士(Steven Chu)
Prof. Chu published ~260 papers in atomic physics, laser spectroscopy, polymer physics, biophysics, biology, and batteries, and holds 10 patents. He was U.S. Secretary of Energy from January 2009 - April 2013. As the first scientist to hold a Cabinet position, he recruited outstanding scientists into the DOE, initiated ARPA-E (Advanced Research Projects Agency-Energy), the Energy Innovation Hubs, and was tasked by President Obama to assist BP in stopping the Deepwater Horizon oil leak. As director of the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, Chu encouraged research in the conversion of solar energy into electricity and transportation biofuels. At Stanford, he was twice Chair of Physics, and helped launch Bio-X at Stanford University, a multi-disciplinary institute combining the physical and biological sciences with medicine and engineering, and the Kavli Institute for Particle Astrophysics and Cosmology. Previous to those positions, he was head of the Quantum Electronics Research Department at AT&T Bell Laboratories.
Dr. Chu has numerous awards including the 1997 Nobel Prize in Physics for his contributions to laser cooling and atom trapping. Other research highlights include the introduction of atomic fountain atomic clocks, atom interferometry based on optical pulses, the manipulation of biomolecules with optical tweezers, and the first single molecule FRET (fluorescence resonance energy transfer) experiments with biomolecules tethered to surfaces. He has 27 honorary degrees, and is a member of the National Academy of Sciences, the American Philosophical Society, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences, National Inventors Academy, the Academia Sinica, and a foreign member of the Royal Society, the Royal Academy of Engineering, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, and the Korean Academy of Science and Technology.
After completing his government service, Chu has returned to Stanford, where he is developing new optical imaging technologies with nanoparticle probes for applications in biology and biomedicine. He is also exploring new approaches to acoustic imaging, lithium ion battery research, PM2.5 air filtration and other applications of nanotechnology.
