In his early years, Liu stud ied m olecu lar spectroscopy. He found the resonance state of bicyanomolecules. He was one of the early researchers dealing with spectroscopy in China. He solved a lot of chemical problems concerning nuclear fuel. He opened a new field of salt lake research in China, organized investigators to survey the resources, and set up the Institute of Saline Lakes. He and his co-workers found rich resources of potassium and magnesium in Chaidan Lake and lithium in Chaidamu basin. He proposed a rational process for the separation of lithium and boron from salt lakes. He comtributed a lot to the development in the northwest and salt lake areas.
He became Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1955.

Vice chairman, China National Petroleum Corporation, senior advisor, China Petro-Chemical Corporation, and chairman, Commission of Science and Technology, Ministry of Petroleum Industry.
Hou is the organizer and founder of scientific institutions in petroleum industry and also in charge of the planning and management. He participated in the formulation, coordination and implementation of S&T development plans at the national and departmental levels. He and his coworkers solved many key problems in oil industry to promote the development of China’s oil refining and achieved China’s selfsufficient supply of the main oil products. He also solved key problems in obtaining jet fuel and special lubricants used in new technology. He dedicated himself to the development of the national economy and national defense.
He became Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1955.

化学家。江苏常熟人。1936年获德国柏林大学博士学位。北京大学教授。长期从事无机化学特别是有关同位素化学及重水的研究。成果大部分已总结于所发表的《从事同位素化学研究五十年》(1985)一文中,并为中国各种轻同位素的研究作出了贡献。80年代以来系统地进行了原子量的精密测定工作,所测定铟原子量「114.818(3)」和锑原子量「121.760(1)」已被国际纯粹与应用化学联合会确定为新的国际标准数据(1991、1993)。
1955年被选聘为中国科学院院士(学部委员)。
Chem ist. Born in Changshu, Jiangsu Province. Received Ph.D. from the University of Berlin Germany in 1939. Professor, Peking University.
Zhang is engaged in the research on inorganic chemistry, particularly chem istry on isotopes and heavy water. His well-known publication “Fifty Years Research on Isotopes Chemistry”(1985) covers most of his results. He also contributed to China’s light isotope research and promoted the development in this field. Since the 1980s, he has systematically determined atomic weights. The accurate atomic weights of indium「114.818(3)」and antimony 「121.760(1)」have been adopted by IUPAC as new international standard data.
He became Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1955.

Zhao was the pioneering researcher of Chinese herbs and was specialized in the separation and crystallization of alkaloids. Corydaline-B separated by him has been collected into China’s pharmacopeia dictionary and used for analgesic in anti-malaria. Gelsemicine-B can be used for biological reagents. He studied about 30 different alkaloids sep arated from Ch inese herbs, some of which are new crystalline alkaloids and have been recommended for clinical use. He created scientific meth lds to study Chinese traditional medicine, solved the crystalline methld for potassium salt of penicillin in production and designed a new process for the production of procaine used for local anesthesia.
He became Member of the Chinese Academy of Sciences in 1955.
