- The development of smartphones inspired various hardware industries which are lagging far behind now, including other consumer electronics, home appliance, and automotive industries. In the past few years, Tesla successfully promoted electric cars and dominates premium car market. What's more, the unveil of smart functions such as autopilot system may change the whole transportation systems. I'll start integrated silicon photonics research and solid-state LiDAR development aiming to level up self-driving security.

- As the Semiconductor Manufacturing Technology node proceeds toward 7 nm and 5 nm, advanced materials with higher device performance are gradually replacing current materials systems to manufacture better chips and continue Moore's Law. From 2010, I've been focusing on developing 2D materials deposition process aiming to fit current Fab tools and process. Simultaneously, novel metrology and measurements have been developed for advanced thin films as well.

- In 2007, Apple released its first generation of iPhone and created novel interface between user and electronics, leading to the soaring market for touchscreens (growth times faster than other display panels in the past decade). And it is expected that flexible/bendable feature will become an important figure of merit in the next generation of touchscreens. From 2009 to 2013, I participated several industrial projects in the bendable touchscreen field.
