Background/research introduction
Prof. Yuan-Chieh Tseng received both B. S. and M. S. from Dept. Materials Science & Engineering (MSE), National Tsing Hua University, in 2000 and 2002, respectively. After military service as an reserved officer (2002~2004), he was admitted to Dept. MSE, Northwestern University, U.S. A, the first academic department of its kind in the world, for Ph.D (2004 ~ 2009) with an honorable full scholarship. He conducted Ph.D thesis under the supervision of Dr. Daniel Haskel at the magnetic materials group, Argonne National Laboratory. He joined Dept. MSE, NCTC as an assistant professor right after Ph.D in 2009, and became an associate professor in 2013. He is also a joint professor of the international college of semiconductor technology (ICST), advanced materials center, and undergraduate honors program of nano science and engineering, of NCTU.
Prof. Tseng’s research focuses on spintronics, which is an emerging technology that exploits both the intrinsic spin of the electron and its associated magnetic moment in solid-state devices. His research explores the spin degree of freedom of the electron to sense, store, process and transfer information in addition to the electron charge. Prof. Tseng believes thatspintronics integrating spin into semiconductors enables functionality of the present-day microelectronics and optoelectronics. This will open many opportunities to new generation of devices, and to the merging of electronics, photonics and magnetics. The success of spintronics relies on creating, controlling, and detecting spins in semiconductors, which is what Prof. Tseng’s research team is devoted to. Prof. Tseng is an expert in synchrotron radiation. His research also involves the development of novel x-ray techniques enabling studies of the interplays among structure, electronic and magnetism in functional materials.
