Tsutomu Miyasaka received his Doctor of Engineering from The University of Tokyo in 1981. In 2001, after 20 year R&D work at Fuji Photo Film, Co., he moved to Toin University of Yokohama (TUY), Japan, as professor in Graduate School of Engineering, where he served as the dean of Graduate School (2006–2009). In 2004 he has established a TUY-based company, Peccell Technologies, serving as CEO. In 2005 to 2010 he also served as a guest professor at The University of Tokyo. Currently he is a professor of TUY and a fellow of Research Center for Advanced Science and Technology (RCAST) of The University of Tokyo. His research has been focused on light to electric energy conversion involving photochemical processes by enhancing rectified charge transfer at photo-functional interfaces of semiconductor electrodes. He has contributed to the design of low-temperature solution-printing process for fabrication of dye-sensitized solar cells and solid-state hybrid photovoltaic (PV) cells. Since the discovery of the organic inorganic hybrid perovskite as PV material in 2006 and fabrication of high efficiency PV device in 2012, his research has been focued on R&Ds of the halide perovskite PV device. He was awarded a Ministry of Science & Education prize in 2009 on his green sustainable solar cell technology. In 2017 he received Chemical Society of Japan (CSJ) Award and was selected as Clarivate Analytics (Thomson Reuter) Citation Laureate on his research of perovskite photovoltaics. He has been leading state projects funded from Japan Society for the Promotion of Science (JSPS) and Japan Science and Technology Agency (JST) and conducting collaboration with Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA).
