Lecturer in Mechanical Engineering
College of Science and Engineering
Dr Nguyen is an ARC DECRA Fellow (2024-2027). He was named as a ‘Rising Stars’, among future leaders in nanotechnology and sensors research field by the Australian’s Research Magazine, 2020. Receiving his PhD in 2018 at the Queensland Micro- and Nanotechnology Centre (QMNC), Griffith University, his research involves electronics and materials of solid state and wide band gap for miniturised physical sensing and bio-electronic applications. He has authored and co-authored 50+ high impact factor journal papers, nearly half in top 10% journal (according to Scopus). Dr Nguyen’s research were featured in PNAS, ACS Nano, Appl. Phys. Letters, ACS Appl. Mater. and Interfaces, IEEE Elect. Dev. Letters, J. Mater. Chem. C., (as the first author) Appl. Phys. Letters, Small, Adv. Eng. Mater., IEEE Elect. Dev. Letters (as equal contribution as first author), and Nature Comm., Science Adv., Adv. Funct. Mater., Appl. Phys. Letters, ACS Appl. Mater. and Interfaces, J. Mater. Chem. C, Nano Energy (as contributing author). Dr Nguyen research focuses on the innovation and development of micro, nano-scaled electronics devices for emerging aspects in sensing, and biological applications.
