  Zhongfang Chen serves an Associate Professor in the Department of Chemistry,University of Puerto Rico (UPR) at Rio Piedras, USA. His laboratory is performing computations on a broad range of nanomaterials, investigating their intrinsic properties, designing new materials with desired properties, and studying their effects to environment and human health. The systems under his investigation include, but are not limited to, one-dimensional nanomaterials (nanotubes, nanocables, peapods,etc.), carbon and inorganic nanographenes, nanocatalysts, novel materials for hydrogen and lithium storage, endohedral metallofullerenes and related endohedral clusters, and molecules with novel bonding patterns. 

  He has delivered over 130 lectures around the world and contributed over 186 papers, including three in Chemical Reviews, and over 20 in Journal of the American Chemical Society, Angewandte Chemie International Edition, and Physical Review Letters. Nine of his papers were highlighted by professional journals (Chemical & Engineering News and/or Nachrichten aus der Chemie, Nature China, Nature Chemistry). These papers gained him over 5500 citations, and an h-index of 41. 

  The unique properties of carbon nanographene and nanoribbons endow graphene-based materials many applications. Such planar structures are not  limited to carbon, the inorganic nanographenes and nanoribbons also exhibit many intriguing properties. Here we will present our recent efforts in exploring the intrinsic properties and applications of three representative inorganic nanographenes and nanoribbons, namely MoS2 , BN , and SiC2, by means of density functional computations.
