Haibo Xue received his Master’s degree from China University of Mining & Technology in 2018. His Master’s research project focused on computational modelling of coal conversion processes.

Supported by CSC PhD scholarship, from September 2018 on, he has worked on the defect physics and chemistry of the metal halide perovskites and their interfaces with contact materials in perovskite solar cells using density-functional theory (DFT).
