        Liang Chu received his PhD degree from Huazhong University of Science and Technology in 2014. Then he joined Nanjing University of Posts and Telecommunications as a lecturer, and he was promoted to be an associate professor in 2018. His research includes perovskite solar cells, photodetectors, and memristors

        Liming Ding got his PhD from University of Science and Technology of China (was a joint student at Changchun Institute of Applied Chemistry, CAS). He started his research on OSCs and PLEDs in Olle Inganäs Lab in 1998. Later on, he worked at National Center for Polymer Research, Wright-Patterson Air Force Base and Argonne National Lab (USA). He joined Konarka as a Senior Scientist in 2008. In 2010, he joined National Center for Nanoscience and Technology as a full professor. His research focuses on innovative materials and devices. He is RSC Fellow, the nominator for Xplorer Prize, and the Associate Editors for Science Bulletin and Journal of Semiconductors
