Xiaoke Liu

Associate Professor, Docent

My research mainly focuses on luminescent materials for electronic and photonic applications, especially light-emitting diodes (LEDs).

Profile

Dr. Xiaoke Liu (also known as Xiao-Ke Liu) received his PhD degree at the University of Chinese Academy of Sciences (China) in 2014. Then, he started postdoctoral research at the City University of Hong Kong (Hong Kong SAR, China). In 2016, he moved to Linköping University (Sweden) as a VINNMER Fellow and a Marie Sk艂odowska-Curie Fellow and became an Assistant Professor in 2018. He holds the title of Docent since 2022 and the position of Associate Professor at Linköping University since 2023. He was a Visiting Postdoc at the University of Cambridge (UK) in 2017/2018, and a Visiting Scholar at Nanyang Technological University (Singapore) in 2019.

He received research grants from Vinnova, EU Marie Sk艂odowska-Curie Actions, STINT, Swedish Research Council (VR), Carl Tryggers Foundation (CTS), etc.

He was recognized as an Outstanding Reviewer for Materials Horizons and a Top Peer Reviewer in Materials Science and Cross-Field.

Research

Light-emitting diodes (LEDs)

LEDs are a type of photonic device that converts electricity into light. They can be divided into several categories, mainly including inorganic LEDs, organic LEDs, quantum-dot LEDs, perovskite LEDs and carbon-dot LEDs.

Organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs)

At the centre of my research in OLEDs is exciplex. Exciplex is an intermolecular charge-transfer excited state formed between an electron donor and an electron acceptor, generally with one of them in the singlet excited state (S1). Exciplex emission is usually inefficient and is observed at interfaces in OLEDs. For a very long time, exciplex emission was considered undesirable in OLEDs. My research focuses on the fundamental understanding of exciplex and the application of exciplex materials for highly efficient OLEDs, for instance, the formation mechanism of exciplex, the design of exciplex materials with thermally activated delayed fluorescence, and the use of exciplex as a multi-functional material in OLEDs. See relevant publications in , , , etc.

Perovskite LEDs

Metal halide perovskites are a class of compounds possessing the same type of crystal structure as CaTiO3. They have a general formula of ABX3, where A+ is a monovalent cation, B2+ is a divalent cation, typically Pb2+ and Sn2+, and X- is a halide anion. Metal halide perovskites are promising semiconductors for low-cost and high-efficiency optoelectronic devices. My research mainly focuses on developing novel perovskite materials (e.g., quasi-two-dimensional perovskites) for efficient and stable LEDs. See relevant publications in , , , , , , , etc.

Carbon-dot LEDs

Carbon dots are a new type of carbon-based nanomaterials. They have favourable attributes like abundance, low cost, eco-friendliness, good biocompatibility, high chemical flexibility, and appealing optical properties. My research interests lie in developing highly luminescent carbon dots as well as applying these materials in LEDs and other electronic and photonic devices.
