Dr. Chi Liu received his Ph.D. in Microelectronics and Solid-State Electronics from Peking University in 2013. Following that, he conducted postdoctoral research on electronic devices at the University of Tokyo in Japan. Since November 2016, he has been engaged in research on low-dimensional electronic devices at the Shenyang National Laboratory for Materials Science, Institute of Metal Research, Chinese Academy of Sciences, where he currently serves as a professor.
In recent years, Dr. Liu has focused on hot carrier devices based on low-dimensional materials. By leveraging the diverse energy band combinations of two-dimensional materials, he has developed innovative hot carrier generation mechanisms and new types of hot carrier transistors, such as silicon-graphene-germanium transistors, double heterojunction transistors, and hot emitter transistors, providing groundbreaking approaches for building high-speed, low-power, and multifunctional transistors for the post-Moore era.
Dr. Liu has led more than 10 projects funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China and other national ministries. He has authored over 30 papers as the first or corresponding author in leading journals and conferences, including Nature. He has delivered more than 20 invited talks at domestic and international conferences and filed over 10 invention patents. Dr. Liu has been recognized with numerous honors, including the National Talent Program for Young Top Talents, the Liaoning Provincial Outstanding Youth Fund, the Chinese Academy of Sciences Special Appointment Research Position, the Outstanding Young Scholar Award of the Institute of Metal Research, and other talent programs and academic awards.
