Tsu-Jae King

Tsu-Jae King was born in Ithaca, NY in 1963. She received the B.S., M.S. and Ph.D. degrees in Electrical Engineering from Stanford University in 1984, 1986 and 1994, respectively.  At Stanford University, her research involved the seminal study of polycrystalline silicon-germanium films and their applications in metal-oxide-semiconductor technologies, for which she received the Ross M. Tucker AIME Electronics Materials Award. She joined the Xerox Palo Alto Research Center as a Member of Research Staff in 1992, to research and develop polycrystalline-silicon thin-film transistor technologies for high-performance flat-panel display and imaging applications. During her tenure with Xerox PARC, she served as a Consulting Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering at Stanford University. In August 1996 she joined the faculty of the University of California at Berkeley, where she is now an Associate Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences, with a Guest Faculty appointment at the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, and the Director of the UC Berkeley Microfabrication Laboratory. Her research activities are presently in sub-100 nm Si devices and technology, and thin-film materials and devices for integrated microsystems and large-area electronics. She has authored or co-authored over 100 publications and holds 5 U.S. patents.

Dr. King is a Senior Member of the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) and a Member of the Electrochemical Society (ECS), the Society for Information Display (SID), and the Materials Research Society (MRS). She has served on committees for many technical conferences including the Device Research Conference, the International Conference on Solid State Devices and Materials, and the International Electron Devices Meeting, and is presently a member of the IEEE EDS VLSI Technology and Circuits Technical Committee.  Since 1999, she has served as an Editor for the IEEE Electron Device Letters.

Tsu-Jae resides in Fremont, CA with her husband and sons. She enjoys hiking, bicycling, racquet sports, basketball, and playing the piano and guitar (not simultaneously!).
