Doctor Luo Pengshu received his Ph.D. degree in Condensed Matter Physics at Institute of Physics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Beijing, China in 2003. From 2003 to 2009, he worked in the Laboratory for Photonics and Nanostructures (CNRS), Institute NEEL (CNRS) and North Carolina State University as a postdoctoral researcher. He is a professor in the School of Physics, Huazhong University of Science and Technology, Wuhan, China at present. His current researches focus on the precision test of exotic forces at short range, Casimir effect and possible new physics beyond standard model.
