Introduction of IAM

Nowadays, the world is entering a new era of science and technology innovation and the development of new industries, advanced materials has become one of the pillars of sci-tech development. In the future, the industrialization and commercialization of advanced materials will play a crucial role in boosting the development of national economics, which is listed as a strategic emerging industry in China.

To take the leadership in sci-tech and industrial revolution, we are dedicated to independent innovation. Bearing this mission in mind, Institute of Advanced Materials (IAM) was established in NanjingTech, July, 2012.

In line with Nanjing Tech's strategies of "constructing a comprehensive, research-oriented and globalized university" and establishing a "collaborative innovation center for advanced biological and chemical manufacturing". IAM focuses on cutting-edge scientific research, aims to be a test zone for innovation trials, an incubator for sci-tech industrialization, a buffer zone for overseas experts, a platform for international cooperation, and a talent pool for personal training. IAM will seek opportunities to contribute to China's strength in global competition and leapfrog development and to optimize China's economic infrastructure.

IAM will bring Jiangsu province to be a national or even global base for research, development, industrialization and manufacture of organic optoelectronics, organic electroluminescence display and OLEDs.

Since being founded, IAM has brought in more than 90 overseas talents and set up a Key Laboratory for Flexible Electronics in Jiangsu Province. It has undertaken over 110 projects, including a National Key research project-Fundamental Studies of Perovskite Solar Cells.

We would like to take this opportunity to express our sincere appreciation to funders, partners, peer researchers for their help and concern! Welcome to join IAM as a faculty or a student. May us fulfill our dream, focus on our long term goal, progress step by step, and have a prosperous future!
