Prof. Jin-Hyo Boo President of the Korean Vacuum Society (KVS) Sungkyunkwan University, South Korea Speech Title: Development of the New Electrode Materials for Improving the Power Conversion Efficiency of Solar Cells Bio:Professor Jin-Hyo Boo obtained his B.S. (1985), M.S. (1987), and Ph.D. (1992) degrees from the Sungkyunkwan University. Between 1990 and 1994, he was a commissioned scientific researcher in the Korea Institute of Science & Technology (KIST, 1990-1991) and research scientist in the Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology (KRICT, 1992-1994), respectively. Then, he got a Post-doc. Fellowship from the Institute of Physical & Theoretical Chemistry of Bonn University, Germany (1994-1995) and became invited research associate from the Institute of Applied Physics of the Cornell University, USA (1996-1997). He moved to the Sungkyunkwan University as an assistant professor on 1997 and was promoted to associate professor (2001) and full professor (2006) in Chemistry Department of the College of Science, respectively. He was chairman of chemistry department and director of the Chemical & Biological Detection Research Center (2011-2019). He was a visiting professor in the Bochum University (Germany, 2004), West Bohemia University (Czech Rep, 2004-2005), Fraunhofer-IST Institute (Germany, 2005), and Kyushu University (Japan, 2011-2012, 2016, 2023), Ulm University (Germany, 2016), Technical University of München (Germany, 2022), respectively. He is also an adjunct professor of the Kyushu University (Japan). He is the fellow of the Functional Materials Society (FMS) and executive councilor of the IUVSTA. He was Guest Editor-in-Chief for several international journals such as MRB, SCT, TSF, and JNN, and now serving as one of international advisory editorial board members for Functional Materials Letters and Catalyst. He is currently the president of the Korean Vacuum Society (KVS). He organized many conferences and delivered numerous plenary, keynote, and invited talks in both domestic and international conferences.
