MembersChih-Yi Jane Chen

Chih-Yi “Jane” Chen is a PhD student in the Materials Science and Engineering department at Stanford University. She is interested in spectroscopy, microscopy, and the optical sciences that make it possible to see at nanoscale resolution. Her research focuses on using chiral metasurfaces’ enhancement of valley-polarized emission in monolayer 2D materials to develop optoelectronic devices towards applications in quantum information and sensing systems. Jane received her undergraduate degree from Purdue University in Mechanical Engineering advised by Dr. Thomas Beechem, after which she worked at Academia Sinica in Taipei, Taiwan as a post-baccalaureate research assistant in Dr. Ching-Wei Lin’s group. Outside of the lab, she can be found 3D printing in Stanford’s Product Realization Lab or checking out the Bay Area’s newest haunts for bubble tea.
