Shi Jin

Shi Jin is an Associate Professor at the College of Staten Island, CUNY. His research focuses on designing organic optoelectronic materials to enhance performance in devices like solar cells, LEDs, and transistors. He explores hierarchical structures in π-stacked organic semiconductors using molecular and supramolecular engineering to optimize charge mobility, phase behavior, and electronic properties. A key area involves developing liquid crystalline π-conjugated materials for photonics and electronics applications. Dr. Jin holds a Ph.D. in Polymer Science from the University of Akron (2001) and a B.S. in Chemistry from Nanjing University, China (1990). His work emphasizes tuning intermolecular interactions to achieve desired material properties.

Publications span from 2007 to 2015, with notable contributions in journals like Chem. Commun., Macromolecules, and Angew. Chem. Int. Ed., focusing on organic semiconductors, polymer phase behavior, and supramolecular engineering. His articles address topics like charge carrier mobility, stimuli-responsive materials, and molecular design for optoelectronic applications. Collaborations with researchers like Zhang, Dadmun, and Grozema highlight interdisciplinary approaches to material science challenges.
