Biographical details

Jen-Inn Chyi received the B.S. and M.S. degrees in electrical engineering from N ational Tsing-Hua University, Hsin-Chu, Taiwan, R.O.C., in 1982 and 1984, respectively, and the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Illinois, UrbanaChampaign, in 1990. His Ph.D. dissertation dealt with molecular beam epitaxial (MBE) growth and characterization of InSb on GaAs. In 1991, he joined the Department of Electrical Engineering, National Central University, Jongli, Taiwan, as an associate professor. Since then, he has established MHE, metal-organic vapor phase epitxy (MOVPE), and high-speed optoelectronic devices laboratories, which house growth and characterization facilities for various III-V materials and devices. He was appointed professor and Director of Optical Sciences Center in 1996 and 2000, respectively. His research interests are in the area of MBE and MOVPE growth of III-V semiconductors and their heterostructures for high-speed electronic and optoelectronic devices. His current research projects include MBE growth of InP-based heterojunction bipolar transistors, quantum dot photonic devices, MOVPE growth of GaN-based materials for ultraviolet, blue, green emitters and high temperature, high power devices.,Dr. Chyi has authored or co-authored over 200 journal papers, two book chapters, and has been granted seven patents. He is the recipient of the 1996 Distinguished Young Researcher Award, the 1996, 1998, and 1999 Best Paper Award of the Electronic Devices and Materials Association of R.O.C., and the 1996 and 1998 Engineering Paper Prize of the Chinese Institute of Engineers. He received the Distinguished Research Award of the National Science Council of R.O.C. in 2002. In 2004, he received the Distinguished Professor Award of the Chinese Institute of Electrical Engineering. He also serves as a Distinguished Lecturer of IEEE EDS since 2004.,Dr. Chyi is a senior member of IEEE and a member of Phi Tau Phi.
