Mr. An Jin, supervised by Prof. J.B. Xu, has won the Best Poster Award from ICMAT2005 (International Conference on Materials for Advanced Technologies). The title was Electrical and Photonic Properties of CsS Nanoribbon Devices. For more information, the Best Poster Award was very competitive, because there were more than 1500 posters and 25 symposia, and each symposium could only select ONE. In Symposium G (Nanodevices and Nanofabrication) where An Jin's one was presented, there were about 100 posters. The Award was conveyed by President of National University of Singapore with the presence of 2 Nobel Laureates. NUS intends to be the best 10 universities in the world in next decade or beyond. Besides, there were more than 2200 delegates from more than 50 countries, including 3 Noble Laureates.
