Khanh Kieu

Khanh Kieu has a broad interest in optical technologies that are valuable tools in semiconductor research and manufacturing. 

His research group has developed nonlinear optical imaging techniques for the characterization of 2D materials such as graphene, MoS2, and others. These are interesting materials that may play an important role in future components and devices. His group has also been focusing on developing new laser sources that are suitable for many important applications including spectroscopy, precision measurements and materials processing. 

Current research focuses on optimizing laser marking of semiconductor chips, surface characterization using third harmonic generation, or our thin film growth and characterization effort.
