Yiming He (School of Physics and Electronic Information Engineering, Zhejiang Normal University) received his B.S. degree from Zhejiang Normal University (China) in 2000, and Ph.D. degree from Xiamen University in 2006. He carried out postdoctoral research at Fujian Institute of Research on the Structure of Material in Chinese Academy of Sciences (China) from 2007 to 2009. Since then, he has been a faculty member of the Department of Materials Science and Engineering at Zhejiang Normal University. His research mainly focuses on photocatalysis and piezocatalysis, especially on designing new catalysts for N2 fixation and pollutant degradation aimed at environmental remediation. He has published more than 140 peer-reviewed papers.
