Linxi Wang

Professor Jiaguo Yu received his BS and MS degrees in chemistry from Central China Normal University and Xi’an Jiaotong University, respectively, and his PhD degree in materials science in 2000 from Wuhan University of Technology. In 2000, he became a Professor at Wuhan University of Technology. He was a postdoctoral fellow at the Chinese University of Hong Kong from 2001 to 2004, a visiting scientist from 2005 to 2006 at the University of Bristol, and a visiting scholar from 2007 to 2008 at University of Texas at Austin. His current research interests are semiconductor photocatalysis for energy and environmental applications, including photocatalytic hydrogen production from water splitting, CO2 reduction to hydrocarbon fuels, water and air purification, and so on. He has published more than 500 papers in peer-reviewed international journals, and has been on the list of Thomson Reuters/Clarivate Analytics Highly-Cited Researchers since 2014. Prof. Yu became a Fellow of the Royal Society of Chemistry in 2015. He is currently an Editor of the journal Applied Surface Science (since 2014), and serves on the editorial board of several international journals. Dr. Liuyang Zhang finished her undergraduate study at Shanghai Jiao Tong University in 2012. Subsequently, she received her Ph.D degree in Materials Science and Engineering from National University of Singapore (NUS) in 2016. She worked as a Research Fellow at NUS before joining the State Key Laboratory of Advanced Technology for Materials Synthesis and Processing at Wuhan University of Technology as an associate professor. Her main research background lies in the area of nanostructured materials for energy and environmental applications, ranging from material design to material simulation. She has collaborated actively with other researchers in various fields, particularly photocatalysis. Linxi Wang received his Bachelor of Science degree (2013) from Wuhan University, PR China, Master of Engineering degree (2015) from Cornell University, USA, and Ph.D. degree (2020) from the Pennsylvania State University, USA. Currently, he is a postdoctoral fellow in Prof. Jiaguo Yu’s group at the China University of Geosciences, PR China. His research interests are the design and fabrication of novel photocatalysts for H2O2 production and water splitting. Bicheng Zhu is an associate professor at China University of Geosciences (Wuhan), PR China. He received his bachelor and doctor degrees in materials science from Wuhan University of Technology. His current research focuses on the synthesis, photocatalytic activity, and first-principles investigation of g-C3N4-based photocatalyst.
