Institute of Materials Science(NIMS)Tsukuba, Japan, from 2002 to 2005. She was a Senior
Research Scientist at the APRI from 2005 to 2011 and a Principal Researcher from 2011 to now.
Also she was a Head Research Scientist at the spectroscopy sensor laboratory of APRI. She was
also adjunct professor the Edith Cowan University at Australia in the School of Science. She
research interests cover the nonlinear frequency conversions based on the second order nonlinearty
with quasi-phase matching technology and application of laser light for display such as a head-up
display (HUD) and light detection and ranging (LiDAR) for automotive.
Recently she focused on the development of solid-state scanner for LiDAR application based on
Si/SiN and Lithium Niobate on Insulator Platforms.
