On March 19^th, 2019, Prof. Xiaoqing Pan of University of California, Irvine, invited by Academician Ze Zhang, presented a report titled A new era in electron microscopy: imaging electron charge distribution and atomic vibration in atomic resolution. On the report, Prof. Pan introduced advanced TEM research on atomic-resolution on 3-D atomic structure, compound, chemical bond, and local electronic properties of materials, and briefly explained research results on in situ TEM. In the end, Prof. Pan said that there are infinite possibilities for the development of electron microscopy. Profess in electron microscopy will provide a stronger support for study of materials science.

Academician Ze Zhang presented monument of Qiushi Materials Science Forum to Prof. Xiaoqing Pan, and took photo with Prof. Yong Wang and Prof. Xiaoqing Pan.

Introduction of Prof. Xiaoqing Pan:

Xiaoqing Pan is the Henry Samueli Endowed Chair in Engineering, and Professor of Chemical Engineering & Materials Science, Professor of Physics & Astronomy at the University of California-Irvine (UCI).  He is also the inaugural Director of the Irvine Materials Research Institute (IMRI) at UCI.Pan's research interests center on the development of atomic resolution transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and in situ techniques, leading understanding of the atomic-scale structure-property relationships of advanced functional materials. He has published over 400 peer-reviewed scientific papers in scholarly high impact factor journals.  His work has been cited over 20,000 times and his h-factor is 76 (Google Scholar). He has given more than 250 plenary, keynote or invited presentations at national and international conferences, and more than 200 invited seminars in national and international institutions.
