Prof. Dr. Yu-Cheng Chiu (邱昱誠)
Professor of Chemical Engineering
National Taiwan University of Science and Technology (國立台灣科技大學 化學工程學系)
Director, Graduate Institute of Intelligent Manufacturing Technology
Yu-Cheng Chiu joined the Department of Chemical Engineering at Taiwan Tech. as a tenure-track assistant professor in August 2017. Currently, he is the Head of Polymer Morphology and Electronics Laboratory. Prior to joining the faculty, Yu-Cheng was a postdoc in the Zhenan Bao research group at Stanford University, where he studied on developing intrinsically stretchable/healable semiconductor and high-performance OFET by solution shearing. Before moving to Stanford, he received his PhD degree under the supervision from Prof. Wen-Chang Chen in December 2012 from the Chem. E at National Taiwan University and then stayed in the same group for his first post-doctoral research until Oct. 2014, where his research was aim to synthesize conjugated-based block copolymers for sensor applications and elucidate the electronic transporting behaviors at the semiconductor/polymer interfaces. BTW, he loves playing basketball very much.
