Biography
Dr Danyang Wang is currently an associate professor and Australian Research Council Future Fellow in the School of Materials Science and Engineering at UNSW, Sydney. He obtained his PhD degree in applied physics from the Hong Kong Polytechnic University in December 2006. He is a materials scientist specialising in experimental design and optimization of a broad range of novel functional oxide thin films and nanostructures for nanoelectronic, photonic and energy-related applications. He has been at the forefront of understanding the processing techniques/conditions that control the materials properties, improving the performance of existing materials, and exploring new functionalities and their related device applications. He has published ~100 scientific articles in international peer-reviewed journals and serves on organising committees of a number of national and international conferences.
Research Interest
Thin film technology, lead-free piezoelectric materials, interface engineering of strongly correlated oxides and energy materials including thermoelectric, photovoltaic and electrocaloric materials.
