Dr. Chang NIU is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the National University of Singapore. His research focuses on nanoelectronics and quantum transport in emerging electronic materials, with the goal of developing next-generation electronic and quantum device technologies.
Dr. Niu’s research lies at the intersection of nanoelectronics and condensed-matter physics. His work explores quantum and topological transport phenomena in low-dimensional and chiral materials, as well as electronic devices based on emerging semiconductor platforms such as oxide semiconductors and related materials. By combining material synthesis, nanoscale device fabrication, and advanced electronic transport measurements, his research aims to uncover new physical mechanisms and translate them into scalable device architectures for future computing systems.
Prior to joining NUS, Dr. Niu was a postdoctoral scholar at imec, where he worked on the development of advanced channel materials for next-generation logic technologies. He received his Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering from Purdue University, USA, in 2024 under the supervision of Peide D. Ye and was awarded the Bilsland Fellowship. He earned his Bachelor of Science in Physics from Fudan University, China, in 2018.
Prior to joining NUS, Dr. Niu authored or co-authored more than 40 peer-reviewed journal and conference publications. His research received the Best Paper Award at the IEEE International Electron Devices Meeting in 2023.
