摘要：
This presentation discusses our recent progress on synthesis and application of nanostructured
hyperbranched polymers as unimolecular containers. The hyperbranched polymers are
constructed based on chain-growth CuAAC polymerization of AB2 monomers with defined
molecular weights, low dispersity and accurate placement of reactive groups. These polymers
with segmented nanostructures achieve orthogonal functionalization in different domains via
cascade reactions. These polymers are successfully applied as unimolecular containers for dyes,
metallic nanoclusters and biomocromolecules.
报告人简介：
Haifeng Gao is an Associate Professor at the Department of Chemistry & Biochemistry,
University of Notre Dame. After receiving his Ph.D. degree in 2008 from Matyjaszewski group at
Carnegie Mellon University and his postdoc training in Frechet group at UC Berkeley, he in 2011
joined the University of Notre Dame as an assistant professor. In May 2017, Haifeng was
promoted to Associate Professor with tenure. His current research focuses on the design and
synthesis of functional polymers with controlled nanostructures by determining their fundamental
structure-property relationships. Haifeng has co-authored more than 70 peer-reviewed papers and
6 book chapters. His publications so far have been cited for more than 4000 times. Haifeng was
the recent recipient of 2010 AkzoNobel Award for Outstanding Graduate Research in Polymer
Chemistry from ACS, 2014 Army Young Investigator Program (YIP) award, 2016 NSF
CAREER award.
