Yu graduated from Tsinghua University, Beijing,
China, in 1967 with B.S. degree. He received his
M.S. and Ph. D degrees from Stanford University,
Stanford, CA, U.S.A. in 1980, and 1985, respectively.
He is
presently the professor and deputy director in the
Institute of Microelectronics, Tsinghua University,
Beijing, China. From 1989 to 2002, he has been a
senior research scientist in the Dept. of Electrical
Engineering in Stanford University, USA, while serving
as the faculty member in Tsinghua. He returned to
Tsinghua full time since Sept. 2002 and holds Pericom
Microelectronics Professorship (2002-2004) established
by Pericom Semiconductor Corp. in San Jose, U.S.
His research interests include device simulation
for nano-scale MOSFETs, quantum transport in nanoelectronic
devices, compact circuit modeling of passive and
active components in RF CMOS, and numerical analysis
techniques.
Dr.
Yu has published more than 170 technical papers
and is the co-author of a book on TCAD (Technology
CAD) in English. He has extensive consulting experience
with major IC/computer companies, including HP (with
HP Labs for ten years), TSMC, and Cypress Semiconductor
in the Silicon Valley. He was one of the chief architects
for the IC-CAD system called Panda in
China in 1980s. The project won the National First
Prize for Science and Technology Advancement in
1993. He currently leads several research projects
founded by grants from the Ministry of Science and
Technology in China (973 and 863 Plans) and from
National Science Foundation in China.
Dr.
Yu is a senior member of IEEE and is currently serving
as the Associate Editor of IEEE Trans. CAD of IC
& Systems, responsible for TCAD related field. |
