Biography

Yu Yao is an assistant professor in the School of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering at Arizona State University. Prior to joining in the faculty of ASU, she worked as a postdoctoral researcher at Harvard University. Her research has focused on various optoelectronic devices based on semiconductor heterostructures, nanophotonic structures, plasmonics and graphene.

Yao received her doctorate in electrical engineering from Princeton University in 2011, and her bachelor's and master's degrees in electrical engineering from Tsinghua University in China.

Education
  • Ph.D. Electrical Engineering, Princeton University 2011
  • M.Eng. Electrical Engineering, Tsinghua University, China
  • B.Sc. Electrical Engineering, Tsinghua University, China
Research Interests

 

Nanophotonics and subwavelength optoelectronics: design nano-scale photonic and optoelectronic devices based on semiconductor nanostructures, plasmonics as well as emerging materials

 

Semiconductor nanostructures, graphene and other 2D materials: study electronic transport and optic properties of semiconductor nanostructures, graphene and graphene heterostructures
