WORK BIOGRAPHY
Mingchao Wang studied chemistry at Shandong University and obtained his BSc in June 2013, and then at Technische Universität Dresden (TUD) and received his MSc in October 2016 after finishing his thesis on organic photovoltaics in Prof. Karl Leo’s group. In November 2016, he joined the Chair of Molecular Functional Materials at TUD, where he worked with Prof. Xinliang Feng on phthalocyanine-based two-dimensional conjugated frameworks in his PhD study, and graduated in January 2021. After that, he worked with Dr. Renhao Dong as a research associate and focused on metal–organic frameworks for electronics. Since May 2022, Mingchao has been leading the “2D Conjugated Polymers” group in the Chair of Molecular Functional Materials at TUD and the Department of Synthetic Materials and Functional Devices at Max Planck Institute for Microstructure Physics (associated).
