Biography (short):

Dr. Chen-Kuei Chung received his B.E. and Ph.D. degrees of Materials from National Tsing Hua University, Taiwan, in 1989 and 1994 respectively. From 1994 to 2002, he worked in Industrial Technology Research Institute for further technology research and development including the process development and integration of MEMS technologies and key components such as inkjet printhead, IR sensor array and biochip. He joined the Department of Mechanical Engineering, National Cheng Kung University (ME/NCKU) in August, 2002, was promoted to Associate Professor in 2005, and then to full Professor in 2009 as well to take a duty of Associate Head in 2017. He is the life member in several academic societies including Taiwan Vacuum Society (TVS), Taiwan Association for Coating and Thin Film Technology (TACT) and Chinese Society of Mechanical Engineering, Taiwan (CSME). He is awarded as 2018 Distinguished engineering Professor of CSME, Taiwan. He has published more than 140 Int’l Journal Papers (two papers selected as front Cover Images), 6 book chapters and more than 130 Int’l Conference Papers and holds more than 35 patents granted. Dr. Chung’s research interests are micro-nano material science and engineering, and fabrication, characterization and process integration of MEMS/NEMS devices for sensor, actuator and LIGA application, especially in the advanced hybrid pulse anodization, characterization and application; laser processing, polymer mol ing and application; mechanical energy harvesting from unique microneedles- triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG).

Research Interest:

• Nano-micro material science and engineering
• Micro-nano machining and integration technology (MEMS) for structure patterning, sensor and actuator application.
• Advanced/Novel hybrid pulse anodization for the fabrication of porous anodic alumina (AAO) films at room temperature and its application to nanomaterials, sensors, and nano devices
• Triboelectric nanogenerator (TENG) for mechanical energy harvesting and self-powered transducers application; advanced/novel CO2 laser processing technology for materials structuring, modification and
• Simple planar mixer, capillary pump and dual-tone polymer casting for microfluidics integration and application to whole blood separation, diagnosis and biomedical dev ce.
