Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
Professor Ben Zhong Tang is currently the Dean of the School of Science and Engineering and the X.Q. Deng Presidential Chair Professor at The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Shenzhen (CUHK-SZ). Professor Tang received his BS and Ph.D. degrees from South China University of Technology and Kyoto University in 1982 and 1988, respectively. He conducted his postdoctoral work at the University of Toronto and worked as a senior scientist in Neos Co., Ltd. in 1989–1994. He joined the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 1994 and was promoted to Chair Professor in 2008. Professor Tang was elected to the Chinese Academy of Sciences, Asia Pacific Academy of Materials, and the World Academy of Sciences for the Advancement of Science in Developing Countries. He is also the fellows of the Royal Society of Chemistry and the International Union of Societies for Biomaterials Science and Engineering.
Professor Tang has published >1,600 papers. His publications have been cited >131,000 times, with an h-index of 164. He has been listed by Clarivate Analytics as Highly Cited Researcher in both areas of Chemistry and Materials Science since 2014. He received National Natural Science Award (1st Class) from the Chinese Government (2017), Scientific and Technological Progress Award from Ho Leung Ho Lee Foundation (2017), Senior Research Fellowship from Croucher Foundation (2007), etc. He is now serving as Editor-in-Chief of Aggregate published by Wiley. Professor Tang has coined the concept of Aggregation-Induced Emission (AIE) and pioneered the development of the AIE field. Currently, AIE research, including the phenomenon, mechanism, materials, and applications, has been widely conducted in the whole world and has opened a venue to an array of possibilities with great potential for high-tech innovations.
This Special Issue is dedicated to celebrating the career of Professor Ben Zhong Tang in honor of his contributions in the field of luminescent probes and sensors. It will cover a selection of recent original research and review articles on subjects ranging from new chemosensors and biosensors, new probes and labels, novel quantifying methods, and their applications. Potential topics include, but are not limited to:
- Reviews on luminescent probes and sensors
- New luminescent probes and materials
- New luminescent systems for chemosensors and biosensors
- New sensor film, nanosensors, and aggregate sensors
- Applications of chemo- and biosensors
