BIOGRAPHY

Dr. Xinbo Zou received his B.Eng degree in Electronic Science and Technology from Beijing University of Posts and Telecommunications (BUPT) in 2007. He received his Ph.D from the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) in 2013 for developing high-performance green and yellow LEDs on Si substrates with nanotechnology. From 2014 to 2017, he was a Research Assistant Professor with the Department of Electronic and Computer Engineering and a Junior Fellow in the Institute for Advanced Study (IAS) of HKUST. His main research interests include characterization of III-N materials and devices, from thin-film to nano-scale devices. Dr. Zou has authored more than 40 scientific papers. In September, 2017, he joined the School of Information Science and Technology (SIST) of ShanghaiTech University as a tenure-track assistant professor.
