Biography
Stanley S. Cheung, received his B.S. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Southern California, Los Angeles, CA, USA, the M.S. degree in electrical engineering from Columbia University, New York, NY, USA, and the Ph.D. degree in electrical engineering from the University of California, Davis, CA, USA.
He is currently an Associate Professor with North Carolina State University, Raleigh, NC, USA. His research is multi-disciplinary and aims to advance integrated photonics in computational and communication systems research – this entails exploring novel heterogeneous semiconductor photonic devices, architectures/algorithms, and developing a deeper understanding of neuromorphic/quantum-inspired computation that lies closer to physics. He is an expert in large-scale heterogeneous photonic integrated circuits. His research interests lie within pushing the state-of-the-art in heterogeneously integrated photonics for high-bandwidth communications and various computing applications. He has pioneered some of the first demonstrations of non-volatile silicon photonics based on optical memristors and optical charge-trap flash memory which are important for realizing low-power and highly scalable optical accelerators and neuromorphic systems.
He has made major key technical contributions to current U.S. government customer contracts (DOD, DARPA, DOE, ARPA-E, NSA, NRO). At Hewlett Packard Enterprise, he has also helped contribute to the formation of an optical interconnect business unit that generated significant revenue from early advanced R&D to large-scale photonic production.
