About

Ying-Hao Chu is a leading figure in the field of functional oxide thin films and flexible electronics, renowned for pioneering the synthesis of high-quality ferroelectric materials on flexible substrates. His most celebrated contribution, the 2017 paper "Flexible ferroelectric element based on van der Waals heteroepitaxy," has garnered over 238 citations and introduced a groundbreaking method for fabricating single-crystalline lead zirconium titanate (PZT) films on flexible mica. This work demonstrated that epitaxial ferroelectric films could retain their superior performance and reliability even under mechanical bending, effectively bridging the gap between high-performance oxide electronics and flexible device platforms. By leveraging van der Waals epitaxy, Chu’s research has opened new avenues for nonvolatile memory, sensors, and energy-harvesting devices that are both robust and bendable. His broader contributions to understanding structure-property relationships in complex oxides have made him a highly cited and influential researcher, consistently shaping the future of adaptive, wearable technology.
