Biography
Wallace C. H. Choy received his Ph.D. Degree in Electronic Engineering from the University of Surrey, UK in 1999. He then joined the National Research Council of Canada as a member of the research staff to work on optical device structures of polarization-independent optical amplifiers and modulators. He joined Fujitsu in San Jose, US in 2001 to develop real-time wavelength-tunable lasers and optical transmitter modules.
He is currently a professor of the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Hong Kong (HKU). Dr. Choy has published over 270 internationally peer-reviewed journal papers as well as US and China patents and contributed to one book and five book chapters. A number of his works have been featured or highlighted as cover-story articles such as Adv. Mater., Adv Energy Mater., and Chem Comm., and in research new/scholarly articles. Details of the publications can be found at http://scholar.google.com.hk/citations?user=GEJf9dAAAAAJ.
Wallace Choy is a fellow of OSA/OPTICA and a senior member of IEEE. He is one of the 2018 higher-cited researchers (in the category of cross-fields). He has been recognized as Top 1% of most-cited scientists in Thomson Reuter’s Essential Science Indicators (ESI) since 2014. He has been recognized as a prolific researcher on organic solar cells in the index (WFC in physical sciences) in Nature Index 2014 Hong Kong published by Nature.
