Xiongliang  Wei
Ph.D. candidate
​
Xiongliang received his B.S degree in traditional optics design in Wuhan University, China in 2014. He then attended Lehigh University for his M.S. degree, and to perform research in photonics. After his M.S., he decided to stay at Lehigh to pursue a PhD degree. Presently, he works on III-Nitride semiconductors, and is focusing on simulation and fabrication of quantum dot active layers to produce the next generation of high-efficiency light-emitting diodes and laser diodes.

Miao-Chan Tsai 
Visiting Researcher 2016-2017
​
My research interests include ways to incorporate new device designs into nitride-based LEDs. During my Ph.D. (NCUE, Taiwan), I focused on numerical simulation. I then joined a start-up venture (TSMC SSL) to develop epitaxial processes for a high-efficiency white LED product. Moving back from industry, I took a postdoc research position (UNM/Sandia National Labs) for the fabrication of nanoscale semiconductor LEDs. Currently, my projects are modeling, design and characterization of nanowire LEDs towards next generation display technology.
