Dr. YI-SHENG CHEN, a postdoctoral researcher at the Organic Electronics Research Center, obtained his Master of Science degree from National Kaohsiung Normal University (NKNU) in 2014. In 2016, under the supervision of Dr. Wang Gen-Tzung at National Taiwan University (NTU), he completed his Ph.D. degree, focusing on organic synthesis and the characterization of novel molecules, particularly carrier transport materials (HTMs) for organic light-emitting diodes (OLEDs). Since 2022, he has been conducting postdoctoral research at Ming Chi University of Technology.Ｔ

The Organic Electronics Center was established in January 2015 under the leadership of Professor Liu Shun-Wei from the Department of Electronics, with the strong support of the chairman. This marked a significant step forward in enhancing research and development (R&D) as well as promoting industry-academia collaboration. Since its inception, the center has received over 80 million NTD in R&D funding—an achievement largely attributed to the leadership and efforts of the chairman.

Beyond academic excellence and publication output, the center has made substantial progress in practical research and development, earning recognition from both academia and industry. In 2018, Director Liu Shun-Wei received the Outstanding Technology Transfer Contribution Award from the Ministry of Science and Technology, as well as the prestigious Wu Ta-You Memorial Award—an acknowledgment of his exceptional capabilities and a rare honor for a professor at a private university.

The core research team, composed of nine members, has made significant contributions to the field and published more than 45 journal papers. They have completed 18 projects funded by esteemed organizations including the Ministry of Science and Technology, Ministry of Education, Ministry of Economic Affairs, and private industry. These projects have secured nearly 18 million NTD in funding, with an additional 2 million NTD generated through technology transfers. The center’s achievements have garnered international recognition, especially in the Asia-Pacific region. As a result, Professor Liu has frequently been invited to speak at academic exchange events, further strengthening the center’s reputation and global academic network.

Since its establishment, the center has cultivated strong partnerships with several prestigious international institutions, including the University of Hong Kong, North Carolina State University (USA), Banaras Hindu University and IIT Kharagpur (India), Shimane University (Japan), and South China University of Technology and Soochow University (China).

The center’s research spans a wide array of areas: organic chemistry, polymer semiconductor materials, electrical power and machinery, electronic circuits, spectroscopic analysis, biomedical sensing, nanotechnology, and organic optoelectronic semiconductor processes. Through the unique expertise of its faculty members, the center offers solutions to both domestic and international industry partners—ranging from vacuum equipment development and organic material validation to Raman spectroscopy identification.

Currently, the center focuses on three major research topics:

Weak light power generation
Wearable device applications
Medical light sources

These research themes are supported by the center’s advanced core facilities and collaborative investigations. Regular discussions and updates ensure alignment and productivity among teams.
