About

Introduction

Jung-Wook Min is a Research Scientist at Photonics Laboratory in the Division of Computer, Electrical and Mathematical Science and Engineering (CEMSE) at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST). He received his M.S. and a Ph.D. degree in the Department of Physics and Photon Science at Gwangju Institute of Science and Technology (GIST), Republic of Korea, in 2012 and 2016. He has 10 years of hands-on experiences of refurbishment, modification and maintenance of various type of III-N and III-As/P MBE chambers and has been focused on the epitaxial growth of III-nitrides by PA-MBE. In Photonics Laboratory, he has a responsibility for PA-MBE growth, training, maintenance and new MBE chamber installation. His research interest is hybrid integration of wide bandgap semiconductors for optoelectronic device applications. Dr. Jung-Wook Min has published around 80 journal/conference papers and he has served as a reviewer for various OSA/ACS/IOP/NPG journals.
