He received the B.S. degree in Earth Sciences from National Taiwan Normal University with honors fellowship, and the M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Physics from National Taiwan University. He is an assistant professor of  Department of Physics and School of Teacher Education at National  Taiwan Normal  University. Prior to joining the College, he was an Assistant Professor in Department of Physics at National Taiwan University.

He joined as a member of the SMA group for his master degree under the supervision of S. Matsushita in Academia Sinica Institute of Astronomy and Astrophysics where he has made  contributions developing new image processing methods for the submillimeter interference  array(ACA, Correlator for ALMA). Then he joined Prof. Tsai's Photonics/Nano-Science & Technology Laboratory  to  work  toward a Ph.D. in nanophotonic semiconductor and plasmonic photocatalysis in the department of physics in National Taiwan University.

His research is aimed at understanding some of the basic principles of nanophotonics  and  the economy with which optics solves complex problems in the design of functional plasmonic semiconductor materials. He then used solid state principles as guidance in  developing new, photonics based and nanofabrication strategies for advanced materials and devices of green technology.
