Ph. D., University of Rochester, May 2002
My research interests are in the properties and behaviors of materials used as functional thin films in organics-based or organics-related electronics. We use the technique of atomic layer deposition (ALD) as our main tool to fabricate thin films of a wide variety of materials for a wide variety of applications, which include organic light-emitting diodes (OLED), solar cells, thin-film transistors (TFT), superca pacitors, resistive-switching random access memories (RRAM). Our current research topics include nanolaminated films serving multiple functions—gas-permeation barriers, transparent conductors, passivating layers, charge-carrier-selecting/transporting layers, and dielectrics etc.—for flexible electroncis, nano-structure-based solid-state supercapacitors, and organic-inorganic nanolaminated super-lattice films.
