From 2008 to 2012, Dr. Lu worked as a PhD student at ECE Department of Purdue University, associated with Professor Kaushik Roy and Vijay Raghunathan. From 2013 to 2014, he was a R&D engineer of Arctic Sand Technologies, a MIT spin-off power management IC design startup in Cambridge, Massachusetts. In fall 2014, he joined in Tezzaron Semiconductor in Naperville, Illinois, as a wafer-stacked 3D-IC designer. In August 2015, Dr. Lu joined Electrical and Computer Engineering at Southern Illinois University Carbondale (SIUC) as a tenure-track assistant professor. Since July 2020, Dr. Lu is an associate professor in the School of Electrical, Computer, and Biomedical Engineering at Southern Illinois University Carbondale (SIUC).
Dr. Lu's research interests include: (a) analog power management IC design (b) device/circuit/architecture/system co-design and joint optimization, (c) memristor-based deep neural network algorithms and hardware architecture.
