College of Energy and Electrical Engineering, Hohai University

I’m an Assistant Professor in the College of Energy and Electrical Engineering at Hohai University. During my PhD study, My supervisor is Professor Gavin Conibeer (Stanford University’s top 2% scientists in the field of applied physics), and I received a full scholarship from the Australian government, a scholarship from the German Academic Exchange Center, and worked as a short-term exchange scholar in Germany and Japan. I joined Hohai University right after PhD graduation in 2017. I have published 7 SCI journal papers as the first or corresponding author, including 5 papers in top journals in the field of applied physics. I have applied for 7 invention patents, written 1 photovoltaic textbook, and won the 2018 “Jiangsu Double Innovation Talent Scheme”. In addition, I have led 1 National Natural Science Foundation of China Youth Project, 1 Jiangsu Province State Key Laboratory of Photovoltaic Science and Technology Cultivation and Construction Site Open Research Project. I also served as academic reviewers for Applied Physics Letters, Journal of Applied Physics, Crystals and Electronic Structure.
