IntroductionDr. Duy Tho Pham is currently a Full-time Distinguished Professor in the Low-Dimensional Quantum Materials (LQM) Research Center and the School of Materials and Chemical Engineering at Hubei University of Technology, China. He received his Ph.D. in Materials Science from Sungkyunkwan University (Republic of Korea) in 2016. He subsequently conducted postdoctoral research at several leading institutions, including the Center for Integrated Nanostructure Physics (CINAP), Institute for Basic Science (IBS) (Sungkyunkwan University), Department of Chemical Engineering, and Department of Mechanical Engineering (Pohang University of Science and Technology, Republic of Korea). Since 2024, he has served as Product Development Director of EXBAT Corporation, a South Korea-based startup specializing in advanced energy storage materials. His research focuses on sustainable energy storage materials and devices, particularly carbon-based nanomaterials (e.g., graphene, carbon nanotubes) for sodium-ion batteries, aqueous zinc-ion batteries (AZIBs), supercapacitors, and hybrid-ion capacitors. He has published numerous first-author, co-first-author and corresponding-author papers in leading journals, including ACS Nano, Advanced Energy Materials, Energy Storage Materials, Nano Energy, and Journal of Energy Storage. His works has elucidated the relationships among green synthesis methods, material structure, surface chemistry, porosity, and electrochemical performance, providing valuable insights for development of next-generation sustainable energy storage technologies.
