Dr. Hoang-Phuong Phan is a Senior Lecturer and an ARC DECRA fellow at the school of Mechanical and Manufacturing Engineering, the University of New South Wales - UNSW Sydney. His research interests cover a broad range of semiconductor devices and applications, including micro/nano mechatronics, integrated sensors, flexible electronics, and biomedical devices. Dr. Phan has been a visiting scholar at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology (AIST), Japan in 2016, Stanford University, CA, USA in 2017, and Northwestern University, IL, USA in 2019. Dr. Phan has published over 100 journal articles (e.g. Nat. Comm., Science Adv., PNAS, ACS Nano, Adv. Funct. Mater., Adv. Sci., Angew Chemie., Nano Energy), two US patents, and four book/book-chapters, all in micro and nanotechnologies. He was the recipient of the Japanese Government scholarships (MEXT) for undergraduate & postgraduate studies from 2006 to 2013 at the University of Tokyo, Japan, as well as GUPRS & GUIPRS scholarships from Griffith for the doctoral course (2013-2016). Dr. Phan was honored with the GU publication award, the GGRS-IEIS travel grant, the Springer outstanding theses award, the Australian Nanotechnology Network Fellowship, GU Postdoctoral Fellowship, the DECRA award, the Pro Vice-Chancellor ECR award (2019), and the Vice-Chancellor Excellence in Research Award for ECR (2020). He serves in the Executive Technical Program Committee of the 2021 IEEE International Conference on MicroElectroMechanical Systems (IEEE MEMS).

At the Phan laboratory, we explore the physics of functional nanomaterials, with the ultimate goal being the development of innovative sensing technologies for niche applications. Our group also synthesizes and grows new material systems that are tolerant to harsh environments (e.g. high temperature, high corrosion, extreme irradiation, and bio-fluid) where the conventional silicon counterpart does not function properly. Applications of electronic devices developed at the Phan-Lab include but not limited to environmental monitoring, space applications, and bio-medical devices.
