Ying-Chiao Wang is currently an Assistant Professor at Department of Materials and Optoelectronic Science (MOES), National Sun Yat-sen University (NSYSU), Taiwan, R.O.C. He pursued his Ph.D. from National Taiwan University in the area of Material Science in 2015. Afterwards he joined distinguished young researcher position at the Ningbo Institute of Material Technology & Engineering, Chinese Academy of Sciences from 2016 to 2018. After that, he worked as the postdoctoral researcher at Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science, School of Engineering, Nagoya University in 2018. In the same year, he was selected as the International Center for Young Scientists (ICYS) Research Fellow at National Institute for Materials Science (NIMS), which is a competitive position for young researchers to conduct independent research at NIMS. From 2021 to 2022, Dr. Wang continued his postdoctoral research at International Center for Materials Nanoarchitectonics (MANA), NIMS, and in May 2022, he worked as a materials engineer at iLab, Foxconn Technology Group. His research interests have focused on the development of solution‐processed nanomaterials and their photovoltaic applications.
