Semiconductor and photonic devices and materials

Chu R. Wie

Dr. Wie is funded by the National Science Foundation. His research interests include semiconductor device reliability under voltage/current stress, radiation (gamma-ray, proton, X-ray) effect; X-ray analysis of semiconductor materials such as metamorphic buffer materials using reciprocal space mapping, and other X-ray methods; Design of Photonic Crystals: new approaches to unitcell design for large photonic bandgap, Structures and materials for shorter wavelengths, and Fabrication; semiconductor nanodevice visual simulation.

He received the 2003 Merlot Classics Award for his efforts on Java Applet Courseware; the 1988 National Science Foundation Presidential Young Investigator Award; and the 1987 NSF Engineering Initiation Award.
