Prof. Yuh-Renn Wu received the Bachelor degree in Physics from National Taiwan University in 1998. He received his Master degree in Graduate Institute of Communication Engineering, National Taiwan University in 2000. He received the Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer science, University of Michigan, Ann Arbor in 2006. He joined the Graduate Institute of Photonics and Optoelectronic and Department of Electrical Engineering in National Taiwan University as an assistant professor in 2007. He was promoted as a full professor in 2016. Prof. Yuh-Renn Wu’s research area is focusing on the analysis and characterization of optical and semiconductor devices. His focus area is developing the numerical simulation tools for device modeling, including GaN HFETs, Nitride based LEDs, Solar cells, thermoelectric material, and organic light emitting diodes. He has developed multi-dimensional Poisson, drift-diffusion, Schrodinger, and thermal equation solver. He also developed Monte Carlo Ray tracing techniques and FD-TD based optical wave solver to model the light extraction, Solar cell or photo-diode related studies. Prof. Yuh-Renn Wu was awarded Ta-You Wu Memorial Award by Ministry of Science and Technology.

吳育任教授於1998年畢業於台大物理系,其後於2000年取得台大電信所電波組之碩士學位,服役期滿後,在原分所就任短期研究助理,並於2002年赴密西根大學就攻讀博士學位,2006年取得博士學位後繼續擔任博士後研究,逾2007年回台灣大學電資學院光電工程研究所擔任助理教授。

吳教授研究的領域為奈米光電元件之數值分析設計,其中包含發光二極體和太陽能電池之研究,高功率微波電晶體之設計,和鐵電性材料之應用設計。其實驗室著重在元件物理之研究,並發展各種適當之數值分析軟體,來分析光電子元件之特性。
