The ICDD Grant-in-Aid Program
Recipients and Award Winners

Grants to researchers around the world to provide high-quality data and refined search techniques!

Each year, the International Centre for Diffraction Data (ICDD) extends financial support to qualified investigators, in the form of grants-in-aid awarded on a competing proposal basis, for the preparation of reference X-ray powder diffraction data. The ICDD charter stipulates that the goals of the ICDD include the collection and dissemination of diffraction reference standards and the sponsorship of suitable research projects for the improvement and utilization of such data. The ICDD Grant-in-Aid Program was established to contribute to these goals.

Thank you and congratulations to the Grant-in-Aid Recipients and Award Winners!

Effective 1 March 2022, ICDD has suspended all product sales and financial transactions with the Russian Federation. Grant payments to previously-approved recipients in Russia in the current cycles have been frozen.

At the 10th National Conference on X-ray Diffraction and ICDD Workshop in Shanghai, China, October 11-17, 2009, Professor Shao-Fan Lin was recognized and celebrated for his outstanding contributions to materials science, characterization, and phase identification. Dr. Timothy Fawcett presented Professor Lin with an award on behalf of the members and Board of Directors of the ICDD, for his submission of 1000 reference patterns published in the Powder Diffraction File.™ Shao-Fan Lin is only the third person who has authored 1000 patterns, joining Don Hanawalt from the Dow Chemical Company and Larry Calvert from the National Research Council of Canada. Hanawalt’s work was part of the foundation of the Powder Diffraction File™ in 1941. As of Release 2009 of the Powder Diffraction File™, Professor Lin has published 972 reference materials and has another 45 in-press for a total of 1,017.

Professor Lin contributed exceptional quality material data sets and has published the crystal structures as well as the powder patterns for over 140 materials. His work has included the characterization of pharmaceuticals, pesticides, and many natural products found in Chinese medicine. The award plaque displays the powder pattern and crystal and molecular structure of methyl ephedrine. This was the first published structure of this commercial stimulant, which is manufactured in Asia and globally distributed. Since his first grant in 1988, Professor Lin has contributed material data sets for publication for 21 consecutive years.

Professor Lin was also the recipient of the 2004 ICDD Distinguished Grantee Award. Not only has he contributed over 1000 X-ray powder diffraction patterns through the Grant-in-Aid Program, he has also been a major organizer for all the ICDD Grant-in-Aid workshops in China over the past fifteen years, with more than one hundred distinguished scientists attending each. Professor Lin also inspired many other Chinese scientists to become grantees for the past twenty years. There are currently 11 active grants in China. In 1988, Professor Lin was named ICDD’s first Regional Technical Co-chair for China. Together, with Professor Xiaolong Chen, the current Co-chair, they have recruited the second-largest country membership in the ICDD.

Professor Lin was born in Wuhan, a strategic industrial city in China. He studied organic chemistry at Nankai University in Tianjin, China, and became a university faculty member after graduation. He took a two-year sabbatical and carried out research on computers in chemistry at Rutgers University in the United States as a Visiting Scholar. Upon returning to Nankai University, he gained his full professorship and assumed the position of Chairman of Central Laboratory there. Since his retirement from Nankai University in 2003, he started a new position at the Tianjin Institute of Analysis. His primary research interests include computers in chemistry, interpretation of diffraction patterns, chemistry information on the Internet, compound structure and character relationships, computer-assisted organic synthesis, and computer-assisted instruction. He has been extensively involved in the computerized identification of X-ray powder diffraction patterns. He has published three books and over one hundred scientific papers.

Professor Lin has also been very active in the Chinese scientific community. He is currently the Vice-Chairman of the Chinese Society of Crystallography, a member of the council of the Chinese Society of Chemistry, the Vice Chairman of the Commission on X-ray Diffraction of Chinese Society of Physics, Chairman of Tianjin Society on X-ray Analyses, a member of the Commission on Powder Diffraction IUCr, member of Committee on IXAS, as well as the past Chairman of the Central Laboratory Nankai University. He was also involved in many ICDD editorial efforts, including the cross-referencing of the Merck/PDF™/CSD databases, and extracting metal and alloy data from the literature, as well as providing ICDD the two-dimensional structures for the PDF™ organic entries.

Congratulations and thank you to Professor Shao-Fan Lin for his valuable contribution to the Powder Diffraction File™!

Kirik Grants
2007 Distinguished Grantee Award – Dr. Sergei Kirik

At the Spring 2007 ICDD Technical Committee Meeting in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania, Dr. Sergei Kirik of Russia was presented with the ICDD Distinguished Grantee Award.

Dr. Kirik was born in Krasnoyarsk. He received his Masters of Science degree from the Novosibirsk State University (1981). He became of Post-Graduate student at the Institute of Inorganic Chemistry, Russian Academy of Sciences, and then received his Ph.D. from the Institute of Inorganic Chemistry, USSR Academy of Sciences in 1981. In 1993, he received a Doctorate Degree in Chemical Sciences at the Institute of Inorganic Chemistry, Russian Academy of Sciences with his thesis, “Modern Methods of X-ray Powder Diffraction and its applications to Tasks of the Inorganic Chemistry.”

It is an interesting fact that during the period of his Ph.D. thesis preparation (in 1979), he received productive support from Prof. G.G. Johnson, Jr., (Materials Research Lab., Pennsylvania State University). Ten years later, he received a similar impact from Prof. D.K. Smith. They both were ICDD Chairmen in different periods. 

 Dr. Kirik became a Senior Teacher at the Institute of Non-Ferrous Metals in Krasnoyarsk. He then became a Senior Researcher at the Institute of Chemistry and Chemical Technology, Russian Academy of Sciences. Presently, he is the Head of the Laboratory of the X-ray Structure Investigations at the Institute of Chemistry and Chemical Technical of the Russian Academy of Sciences in Krasnoyarsk and Professor/Chair of Inorganic Chemistry at the State Academy of Non-Ferrous Metals and Gold in Krasnoyarsk. His primary research interests include Inorganic Chemistry: complex compounds, binary, ternary oxides system, super and ionic conductors, ceramics, and mesostructured materials. Many new obtained substances needing crystallographic descriptions were the reason for developing methods of X-ray Powder Crystallography. He contributed to pattern indexing, full profile refinement, recognition imaging technique for powder patterns, simulating annealing approach in structure determination, continuous density technique for modeling nanostructures. He has published over 190 articles in scientific publications.

The ICDD Distinguished Grantee Award is presented to a grantee who has demonstrated exceptional contributions to the ICDD through Grant-in-Aid activities. Dr. Kirik was introduced to the ICDD Grant-in-Aid Program in 1993. Since then, he has contributed over 600 patterns, with 95% of those being of “*” quality. Dr. Kirik has been an ICDD member since 1997.

Congratulations to Dr. Sergei Kirik, the ICDD Distinguished Grantee. Dr. Kirik, joining his predecessors, Professors Evgeny Antipov, Shao-Fan Lin, and Ekkehart Tillmanns, has become the fourth recipient of this award. 

Lin Grants
2004 Distinguished Grantee Award – Prof. Shao-Fan Lin

At the Spring 2004 ICDD Technical Committee meeting in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania, Prof. Shao-Fan Lin of the People’s Republic of China was presented with the ICDD Distinguished Grantee Award.

Professor Lin was a student of organic chemistry at Nankai University. He completed his studies in 1958 and was a researcher at Nankai University until 1981. He then had the opportunity to attend Rutgers University as a visiting professor through 1982. He returned to Nankai University, was promoted to full professor, and remained there until 2003 when he retired. In Professor Lin’s case, retirement is a loose term, because he is now working at the Tianjin Institute of Analysis where he has resumed his ICDD grant activities.

The ICDD Distinguished Grantee Award is presented to a grantee that has demonstrated exceptional contributions to the ICDD through Grant-in-Aid activities. Not only has Prof. Lin been a significant contributor to the PDF database through his grant proposals (over 700 diffraction patterns through grants since 1987), he has also organized workshops in China, which have not only been successful in bringing many Chinese scientists into the Grant-in-Aid Program but have also been important in connecting ICDD with diffractionists throughout China.

Congratulations to Prof. Shao-Fan Lin, ICDD Distinguished Grantee. Prof. Lin is the third recipient, joining Prof. Ekkehart Tillmanns from the University of Vienna, who won the award in 1998, and Prof. Evgeny Antipov from Moscow State University, who won the award in 2001.

Grants Antipov
2001 Distinguished Grantee Award – Prof. Evgeny Antipov

At the Spring 2002 ICDD Technical Committee meeting in Newtown Square, Pennsylvania, Prof. Evgeny Antipov of Russia was presented with the ICDD Distinguished Grantee Award.

Prof. Antipov was born in Tuapse, a small town on the Black Sea coast. After graduating from secondary school with a gold medal, he attended Moscow State University, and under the direction of his scientific advisor Prof. Kovba, Prof. Antipov graduated from Moscow State University with his Ph.D. and Doctor of Sciences. As a faculty member at Moscow State University, he became a full professor in 1998. His scientific interests include solid-state chemistry, synthesis of new inorganic compounds, crystal chemistry of inorganic compounds, and X-ray diffraction. He has published more than 170 papers, has delivered more than 40 invited lectures at international conferences, and has received several awards for his work in superconductivity.

The ICDD Distinguished Grantee Award is presented to a grantee that has demonstrated exceptional contributions to the ICDD through Grant-in-Aid activities. Not only has Prof. Antipov been a significant contributor to the PDF database through his grant proposals (302 published patterns, 296 star quality), he has also been actively involved with the organization of grant workshops, the latest taking place in Lviv, Ukraine this past January.

In 1990 Evgeny participated in the 15th IUCr Congress, his first conference outside the Soviet Union. He met Dr. Ron Jenkins, Principle Scientist at the ICDD in 1990, near an ICDD poster. Ron suggested that Prof. Antipov participates in the Grant-in-Aid Program. Eventually, the grant was approved—the first grant Prof. Antipov received. The first ICDD grant workshop in Moscow followed in 1993 and became the starting point of a very active Russian participation in the Grant-in-Aid Program. More than one-third of the grant proposals reviewed at the March 2002 ICDD Spring meeting were from scientists who have attended or been associated with workshops organized by Prof. Antipov.

Congratulations to Prof. Evgeny Antipov, ICDD Distinguished Grantee. Prof. Antipov is the second recipient, joining Prof. Ekkehart Tillmans from the University of Vienna, who won the award in 1998. image – Tom Blanton, Chairman of the Grant-in-Aid Committee presenting the Distinguished Grantee Award to Professor Evgeny Antipov.
