Junqiao Wu
Junqiao Wu is a full professor of materials science at the University of California, Berkeley.[1] His website is wu.mse.berkeley.edu. Wu's materials science research focuses on semiconductors, electronic materials and thermal energy.[2] Wu's research in semiconductors has led to major discoveries in the field, such as indium gallium nitride alloys have bandgaps spanning the entire near infrared to ultraviolet spectrum, and electrons in vanadium dioxide conduct energy without conducting heat,[3] as well as a range of applications in solar cells, infrared imaging, photonics, and thermoelectrics. He received a BS degree from Fudan University, a MS degree from Peking University, and a PhD degree under Prof. Eugene Haller from UC Berkeley. He received postdoctoral training under Prof. Hongkun Park from Harvard University.
