3 主要学术成就、科技成果及创新点: During his graduate study, in experiments, Dr. Weilin Xu invented an effective nonmetal electrocatalyst for hydrogen evolution, which can replace noble metals, such as platinum (Pt). A new synergistic catalysis between Pt and carbon materials for oxygen reduction was also discovered by him. From his theoretical work, he supplemented the theory of normal pulse voltammetry (NPV). He also made a great discovery about a new inverted region between the standard rate constant and reorganization energy. This inverted region could explain the puzzle observed many years ago in NPV experiments. He came up with a wealthy achievement characterized by eight papers (first author) published throughout his graduate career. When he was at Cornell University for his first postdoc research, Weilin pioneered the in-situ single nanoparticle catalysis with single molecule methods. In this project, he obtained the following completely new information which had been masked in ensemble experiments: 1) It was found the catalysis on single Au NPs surface occurs via a Langmuir-Hinshelwood Mode;

2)The product formation and dissociation are found to occur at different surface sites;

3)Three different subgroups of Au NPs were observed in monodispersed Au nanoparticles;

4) Monodispersed Au-nanoparticles display large static activity heterogeneity;

5)The activity of individual nanoparticles fluctuates, attributable to catalysis-induced and spontaneous surface restructuring dynamics at a timescale of about 10-100 seconds;

6) Two subgroups of surface sites were found :Type-a with low activity and strong binding;

Type-b with high activity and weak binding. In theory he developed two different models which can be used to study the single-molecule kinetics of the heterogeneous catalysis by nanoparticle catalysts/enzymes with multiple active sites. In his second project at Cornell, he used single molecule fluorescence events to see the in real time catalytical behavior of single-walled carbon nanotubes by pinpointing catalytic reaction sites on carbon nanotube walls. Theoretically he predicted firstly by studying the electron transfer properties of carbon nanotubes one can differentiate semiconducting tubes from metallic ones. Later on his experimental data also validated this kind prediction. After he joined Prof. Muller'
