报告摘要：

 In this presentation, I will discuss our recent progress toward design  of advanced colloidal carbon spheres for energy applications.
 We have developed and synthesized various nanoporous carbon spheres  (NCSs) (including novel microporous carbon spheres, mesoporous carbon  spheres, core shell and yolk shell carbon spheres with hierarchical  porous structures) with high monodispersity, defined size and  orientation of pores, tunable surface area, and controlled surface  properties and structural ordering.Specifically, (i) We developed a  strategy to synthesise monodisperse polymer spheres from  resorcinol–formaldehyde (RF) resin and carbon “Stöber” spheres.(ii) In  addition, modified carbon spheres have been prepared through a bottom up  self-assembly by using different functional precursors, or  post-synthesis modification method.Furthermore, we have applied this  method to produce uniform carbon core–shell spheres with adjustable  shell thickness, carbon@metal, carbon@silica, metal@carbon,  silica@carbon, or metal oxide@carbon materials.  (iii) We also extended  the synthesis method of mesoporous silica nanospheres to enable the  preparation of ordered mesoporous resorcinol formaldehyde nanospheres  with particle size from 80 to 400 nm and mesopores of ~3.5 nm in  diameter.(iv) A general strategy was developed for the synthesis of  versatile carbon nanospheres impregnated with highly monodispersed metal  nanoparticles including (Au, Pt, Rh, Ru, Ag, Pd, Ir, Fe and Cu),  testing these metal-loaded carbon particles as catalysts for the  hydrogenation of benzaldehyde showed outstanding performance.
 Our synthesis strategies provide a new benchmark for fabricating  well-defined porous carbonaceous nanospheres with a great promise for  energy storage and conversion applications.
