Bio: Professor H. Hoe Tan is currently the Head of the Department of Electronic Materials Engineering at the Research School of Physics and Engineering, The Australian National University. He received his B.E. (Hons) in Electrical Engineering from the University of Melbourne in 1992, after which he worked with Osram in Malaysia as a quality assurance engineer. In 1997, he was awarded the PhD degree from the Australian National University for his dissertation on "Ion beam effects in GaAs‐AlGaAs materials and devices". He has been the past recipient of the Australian Research Council Postdoctoral, QEII and Future Fellowships. He has published/co‐published over 350 journal papers, including four book chapters. He is also a co‐inventor in 4 US patents related to laser diodes and infrared photodetectors. His research interests include epitaxial growth of lowdimensional compound semiconductors, nanostructured optoelectronic devices and ion‐ implantation processing of compound semiconductors for optoelectronic device applications. Prof. Tan is a Senior Member of the IEEE.
