1. Member of Electronics group, developing advanced low-k precursors for semiconductor industry customers;2. Led development of ellipsometric porosimetry (EP) for porosity characterization;-Researched, designed, and coordinated manufacturing of testing vacuum chamber.-Developed SOP and data analysis program, enhanced test accuracy and efficiency.3. Coordinated collaboration between UD and Air Liquide to ensure quality and timely results;- Explored XRR as a new material density characterization technique, proposed and presented the feasibility to management and proved for long-term implement.

1. Metrology understanding and development for porous low-k dielectrics characterization.-Optimized Nanoindentation procedure for mechanical characterization, significantly reduced substrate interference.-Studied the complementarity of three porosimetry techniques, PALS, EP and XRR, understood their advantages and limitations in characterizing porous dielectrics of different connectivity.-Mechanical reinforcement of low-k dielectrics via modification of precursor chemistry-Superior mechanical properties had been realized through introducing alkane bridge into precursor.2. Silicon surface modification;-Substantially enhanced silicon wafer lifetime by wet-organic surface passivation; studied interface electron retarding phenomenon due to surface charging;-Comprehensively characterized laser-pulsed silicon (“black silicon”) from morphology, crystallinity, phase and compositional distribution using SEM/EDEX, XRD, UV-Vis and XPS to understand the optical properties dependence on processing conditions.-Maintained and coordinated XPS in surface science lab; consulted on test specifications based on project requirements, responsible for daily maintenance, schedule coordination and operation training
