Suhao Wang

Prof. Suhao Wang received systematic training on the structure-property relationship of conjugated polymers and their applications in semiconductor devices at the Max Planck Institute for polymer research in Germany from 2010 to 2013. In 2012, he was awarded the “young researcher award” from the 5th International Symposium for Flexible Organic Electronics.

In late 2013, he moved to Linköping University in Sweden to further his research as a postdoc fellow, probing the role of intermolecular aggregation in conjugated polymers. Since 2015, he has been focusing on the n-doping of conjugated polymers for organic thermoelectrics.

In 2017, he was offered a permanent position as a research scientist at Linköping University. In 2019, he was selected by Synthetic Metals as an “early career research leader” and invited to contribute a review paper on the role of short-range order in conjugated polymers.

In 2020, Prof. Wang joined LPPI of CY Cergy Paris Université as a principal investigator, leading the research of designing conjugated polymers for various organic electronic devices, with a major focus on thermoelectric polymers for green energy conversion. In 2021, he was appointed as a fellow of the EUTOPIA Young Leaders Academy.

To date, he has published > 35 papers in highly ranked peer-reviewed journals, such as Progress in Polymer Science, PNAS, JACS (2), Advanced Materials (5), Chemistry of Materials (2), ACS Applied Materials and Interfaces (4),  Advanced Functional Materials(2), Advanced Energy Materials, Advanced Science, ACS Nano, Small, Small Methods, Materials Today Advances, etc. According to Web of Science, his papers have been cited > 2700 times, with an H-index of 25. 

In 2023, he joined Université du Littoral-Côte d’Opale(ULCO) as a professor(CPJ), working at the department of UDSMM as a principal investigator. His present working email address is: suhao.wang@univ-littoral.fr
