Dr. Xiaoke Liu received Ph.D. degree at University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (China) in 2014, focusing on organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). In 2014-2016, he continued his research work on OLEDs as a Senior Research Associate at City University of Hong Kong (Hong Kong SAR). In 2016, he moved to Linköping University as a postdoc and started research on perovskite optoelectronics. He was a visiting scholar in Prof. Richard Friend's group (2017.6-2018.1) at University of Cambridge (UK), and in Prof. Tze Chien Sum's group (2019.3-2019.8) at Nanyang Technological University (Singapore). He was awarded Docent in Materials Science in 2022.
Dr. Xiaoke Liu teaches a graduate course - Luminescent Materials and Their Applications (5 ECTS) - at IFM. He received research grants from Vinnova, EU Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions, STINT, Swedish Research Council (vr), etc. His research ambition is to develop new-generation luminescent materials for light-emitting diodes, and to understand science behind the materials and devices. Materials under investigations include small molecules, metal halide perovskites and carbon dots.
