Dr. Jai Prakash is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Chemistry, National Institute of Technology (NIT) Hamirpur, India. Prior to joining NIT Hamirpur, he was working as ‘INSPIRE Faculty’ in Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) Kanpur, India. He received his Ph D in 2012 (India). He worked as a postdoctoral researcher at INRS-EMT, Quebec (Canada), Aix-Marseille University (France), Universite Libre de Bruselles (Belgium) and University of the Free State, (South Africa). His major research fields are functional nanomaterials, surface science, ion beam modifications of nanomaterials and Chemistry of materials. His highly interdisciplinary research includes synthesis/characterizations of plasmonic, polymers, metal-oxides semiconductors nanomaterials, their nanocomposites for sensing, optical, photocatalysis, surface enhanced Raman scattering (SERS) related environmental and energy applications. Dr. Junghyun Cho is a Professor of Department of Mechanical Engineering andthe Materials Science and Engineering Program at the Thomas J. Watson College of Engineering and Applied Science in Binghamton University (State University of New York). Prior to joining Binghamton University in 2001, he was a postdoctoral researcher at the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) (1999-2001). He received his Ph.D. in Materials Science and Engineering from Lehigh University (1998).  His research areas cover processing science, microstructure design and development of materials, mechanical behavior and testing, ceramic coatings, and electronic packaging materials and processes including bonding and 3D integration. Prof. Dr. Bruno C. Janegitz graduated in Chemistry (2006), Master in Chemistry (2009) and Doctorate in Science by the Federal University of São Carlos (2012). He is currently Adjunct Professor C, level 2 and Leader of the Laboratory of Sensors, Nanomedicine and Nanostructured Materials (LSNano) at the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar), Araras Campus; Accredited Professor in the Graduate Program in Biotechnology (PPGBiotec) and Graduate Program in Materials Science (PPGCM-So) at the Federal University of São Carlos (UFSCar). He has experience in the Chemistry and Biotechnology areas, working mainly on the following themes: synthesis and characterization of nanomaterials, electroanalytical, electrodes modified with nanomaterials and nanostructured biosensors. Prof. Shuhui Sun is a Full Professor at the Institut National de la Recherche Scientifique (INRS), center for Energy, Materials, and Telecommunications (Montreal, Canada). He is a Fellow of the Canadian Academy of Engineering (CAE), a member of the Royal Society of Canada (College), and Vice President of the International Academy of Electrochemical Energy Science (IAOEES). He serves as the Executive Editor-in-Chief of Electrochemical Energy Reviews (EER, IF=32.8). His research interests focus on Nanomaterials for Energy Conversion and Storage applications, including H 2 fuel cells, hydrogen generation, lithium batteries, Zn-air batteries, Na-ion/Zn-ion batteries, CO 2 reduction, etc
