Ying-Chen Chen
Assistant Professor, Arizona State University
Ying-Chen (Daphne) Chen is currently an assistant professor in the School of Electrical, Computing and Energy Engineering at Arizona State University, Tempe, Arizona. She received the Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering (ECE) at The University of Texas at Austin in 2019, B.S. and M.S. degree from National Chiao Tung University (Taiwan). Prior to joining ASU, she was the assistant professor at Department of Electrical Engineering, Northern Arizona University. She was R&D Pathfinding Emerging Memory Engineer at Micron Technology, and a hardware developer at IBM on emerging memory and computing applications. Her primary research focuses on emerging electronics, device physics, fabrication, characterization, and energy-efficient computing. She was the recipient of Sandia National Laboratory Research Award 2019, and Rising Stars 2017 in EECS (30 EE recipients in U.S.). Her research has been supported by NASA, Arizona Board of Regents (ABOR), and various corporations (Micron Technology, Tokyo Electron LLC). Dr. Chen has authored or co-authored over 70 peer reviewed journal/conference proceedings, and 3 book chapters. She serves on technical program committee on Device Research Conference (DRC), Semiconductor Interface Specialists Conference (SISC), Electron Devices Technology and Manufacturing (EDTM) etc.
Ready to mentor
In the rising of artificial intelligence (AI), the new computing configurations on the basis of non-volatile memory attracts considerable attentions to create the new computing paradigms. Among the emerging memories, resistive memory attracts a great number of attentions and has been a great candidate because of its simple design, fast operation, excellent scalability, and high-power efficiency. This research group is focusing on semiconductor memory and transistors for post-CMOS era.
