About

Decai Ouyang is a rising leader at the frontier of two-dimensional (2D) multifunctional materials, with a core focus on piezo-ferro-opto-electronic semiconductors for next-generation artificial intelligence. His most cited work introduces NbOX₂ (X = Cl, Br, I) as a novel class of 2D materials that uniquely integrate piezoelectric, ferroelectric, and optoelectronic properties. This breakthrough enables brain-inspired multimodal perception and computation, allowing a single device to simultaneously sense and process diverse environmental stimuli—mimicking the human brain’s efficiency. With over 1,000 citations across his portfolio, Ouyang’s research has significantly advanced the field of neuromorphic computing, offering a pathway toward low-power, real-time AI systems. His notable achievement includes demonstrating the first 2D material capable of coupling mechanical, electrical, and optical responses for in-sensor computing. By bridging fundamental materials science with practical AI hardware, Ouyang’s work is shaping the future of intelligent, adaptive electronics.
