Prof. Chunli Bai graduated from the Department of Chemistry, Peking
University in 1978 and received his M.S. and Ph.D. in chemistry from
Institute of Chemistry, Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) in 1981 and
1985, respectively. He worked at California Institute of Technology
as a Research Associate from 1985 to 1987, and later joined the Institute
of Chemistry of CAS. From 1991 to 1992, he was a visiting professor
at Institute for Materials Research at Tohoku University, Japan. Currently
he is serving as the Vice President of the Chinese Academy of Sciences,
President of Chinese Chemical Society, Vice President of Chinese Material
Research Society, Executive Council Member of Chinese Electron Microscopy
Society, Standing Council member of Chinese Crystallographic Society
(CCrS) and Editor-in-Chief of China Basic Science. He is elected an
Academician of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and a Fellow of the Third
World Academy of Sciences.
Prof. Chunli Bai has been very active in the field of scanning probe
microscopy (SPM) since 1985, when he conducted research at the California
Institute of Technology. He has continued working in this area after
he came back to China in 1987 to initiate and promote the development
of SPM research in his own country. He led the research and successfully
developed the first Atomic Force Microscope (AFM), Scanning Tunneling
Microscope (STM) for operation in air, Low-Temperature STM, UHV-STM,
Laser-AFM and the first Ballistic Electron Emission Microscopy (BEEM)
in China, which are applicable to the studies of various specimens under
various environmental conditions. Combining scanning probe microscopes
and other techniques, Prof. Bai and his colleagues has studied a wide
variety of materials with emphasis on the organic and biomaterials structures.
Prof. Chunli Bai has been an invited speaker at various universities,
institutions and symposia the world over. He has over 250 publications
to his credit in peer-reviewed journals, plus 6 patents. He is the author
of 10 books and several book chapters published by the well-known Springer-Verlag
and other publishers, including the first monograph in the world on
the subject of STM, which was awarded the China Book Award in 1993.
As the editor-in-chief, he has edited 15 books in the series of "Doctoral
Books". Prof. Bai has won 16 awards and prizes for his contribution
to the science community, especially to the development of SPM and its
applications in China. He is likewise influential in the work SPM science
community; as for over a decade he has been a Member of International
Organizing committee of the International conference on Scanning Tunneling
Microscopy/Spectroscopy and Related Techniques.
As a National Representative of IUPAC, he has twice (in 1995 and 1997)
attended the General Assembly (the council and commission I.3). He also
served as a Member of the Organizing committee of various academic conferences
and an adjunct professor in Tsinghua University, Peking University,
and many top Chinese universities.
