Chunxiong Bao is an Associate Professor at Nanjing University. He received his B.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Physics from Nanjing University in 2010 and 2016, respectively. After completing his studies, he worked as a postdoctoral researcher at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln, where he was part of the Organic Electronics Group led by Professor Jinsong Huang. He then continued his research at Linköping University in Sweden, where he was part of the Optoelectronics Unit led by Professor Feng Gao. In April 2022, he returned to Nanjing University with the support of the National Natural Science Foundation of China's Excellent Young Scholars Funding.

His group is working on the properties and characterization of defects in metal halide perovskites and optoelectronic devices based on perovskites, e.g. solar cells, photodetectors and light-emitting diodes.
