BIOGRAPHY
Dr. Wei-Cheng Chen is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Molecular Science and Engineering at National Taipei University of Technology. His research lies at the intersection of soft electronic materials, perovskite semiconductors, optoelectronic devices, and neuromorphic electronics, with a particular emphasis on achieving ultralow-energy operation, mechanical adaptability, and bio-inspired functionality.
Chen received his Ph.D. in Chemical Engineering from National Taiwan University in 2025, following earlier training at NTUT for both his B.S. and M.S. degrees. His interdisciplinary background spans conjugated polymer design, perovskite quantum dots, nanoscale morphology control, and device physics, enabling him to bridge molecular-level materials engineering with system-level device architectures. During his doctoral and postdoctoral training, he has authored more than 40 peer-reviewed publications in leading journals, with multiple first-author contributions in Materials Horizons, Chemical Engineering Journal, and Materials Today.
The core philosophy of Dr. Chen’s research is that materials design should be guided by device function and system demands. His group develops hybrid polymer–perovskite platforms for applications including flexible photosynaptic transistors, photodetectors, stretchable optoelectronics, and neuromorphic computing, aiming to overcome the energy and scalability limitations of conventional AI hardware. Beyond materials synthesis, his work places strong emphasis on structure–property–function relationships, combining advanced characterization with device-level modeling.
In parallel with research, Dr. Chen is deeply committed to mentorship and laboratory culture. He emphasizes critical thinking, experimental iteration, and scientific communication as essential pillars of training for young researchers. Through an interdisciplinary and collaborative environment, his laboratory aims to cultivate researchers capable of transforming fundamental materials insights into impactful electronic technologies.
