Über die Autorinnen und Autoren

Kazuyuki Takai Is Professor in the Department of Chemical Science and Technology, in the Faculty of Bioscience and Chemistry, at Hosei University in Japan. He received his PhD from the Tokyo University of Technology. His research focuses on the physics and chemistry of condensed matter, particularly the electronic properties of carbon-based nanoscale systems, and their chemical modification. He has been awarded the Young Scientist Award from the Physical Society of Japan, and is on the editorial board of the Journal of the Carbon Society of Japan. He has published widely in the field.

Seiya Tsujimura is Associate Professor in the Faculty of Pure and Applied Sciences at the University of Tsukuba, in Japan. He received his PhD from Kyoto University, on energy conversion systems based on bioelectrocatalytic reactions. His research lies at the interface of electrochemistry and biological redox reactions. His group employs engineered biocatalysts and nano-structured electrode materials to design new biosensing systems with higher accuracy, and biofuel cells with higher power density. He is the editor of Electrochemistry, from the Electrochemical Society of Japan, and has published widely in the field

Feiyu Kang received his PhD from The Hong Kong University of Science and Technology in 1997. He is honorary editorial advisory board of international journal CARBON, Joint Chairmen of international symposiums: CARBON2002 (Beijing), Carbon2011 (Shanghai) and 15th International Symposium on Intercalation Compounds (ISIC15), Coordinators of international research projects: Professor M. Inagaki (NSFC-JSPS) and Professor I. Mochida (JST-MOST).

Prof. Kang has investigated graphite and carbon materials since 1988. His research interest includes nano-carbon materials, graphite producing process, porous carbon and nuclear graphite. Prof. Kang had published more than 200 scientific papers and 3 books.
