General

Kaiyou Wang, PhD, Professor, Director of State Key Laboratory for Superlattices &Microstructure, obtained his PhD in 2005 at School of Physics & Astronomy, University of Nottingham. He worked as a researcher assistant from March to the end of May/2005 in University of Nottingham. He then worked as a researcher in Hitachi Cambridge Laboratory from June/2005 to the end of March/2009. During his stay in UK, he visited twice Institute of Physics, Poland (Jan/2003-Mar./2003 & Oct./2003-Dec./2003) and worked as a visiting professor in Niels Bohr Institute, Copenhagen (Sept/2007-Oct./2007). He joined Institute of Semiconductors in CAS as a member of "100 talent program"; In 2012, he has been awarded the "National Outstanding Youth foundation"from NSFC. In 2014, he has been slected as the excellence of "100 talent program" final assessment. 

  He has co-author published more than 100 articles in Journals and conferences proceedings of international circulations (cited more than 3800 times).  He has been selected as an "International Union of Pure and Applied Physics (IUPAP) Young Author Award" in 27th International Conference on the Physics of Semiconductor, 2004. He also has been awarded the "best Chinese overseas PhD student Award"; 2005. Currently he is the editor on board for "Chinese Physics B" ,"Journal of Physics" and "Progress in Condensed Matter Physics'. Also he is a regular referee for the top physics journals.
His current research interests include: (1) spintronic devices ; (2)
nano​ devices based on low dimensional materials.
