Duanjun Cai was born in Xiamen, China in 1978. He attended Xiamen University for his undergraduate education and graduated with honors in Physics. After his Ph.D studies in Physics Department of Xiamen University, he got his Ph. D degree on Condensed Matter Physics in 2006. He moved to National Taiwan University of Taiwan (2007), University of Coimbra of Portugal (2008) and Université Lyon I of France (2009) as a postdoctoral fellow. After his postdoctoral researches he joined College of Physical Science and Technology at Xiamen University in 2011 as an Associate Professor and then full professor (2015). He also served as an Adjunct Associate Professor at National Taiwan University of Taiwan in 2013, and a visiting Professor at Duke University of U.S.A in 2016.
Dr. Cai has been a pioneer in nitride semiconductor, biophysics, nanoscience and nanotechnology where he has originated novel strained heterostructures of AlGaN for deep UV LEDs, non-contact electrical characterization method on AES, original concept of bio-heterojunction on firefly chromophores, synthesis of superfine and ultralong Cu nanosilks as transparent electrodes, extremely large size (> 25 inches) growth of monolayer h-BN film, first realization of p- and n-type conductivities of h-BN monolayer, and ultrahigh responsivity solar blind photodetecting paper with ZnO nanorods/h-BN. He is a member of American Physical Society, American Biophysical Society, American Chemistry Society, Physical Society of R.O.C., and Semiconductor Society of P.R.C. He is also the committee member of the National Conference on Wide Bandgap Semiconductors and the National Conference on MOCVD, and the Session Chair of World Chemistry Forum. He has published over 100 papers in peer-reviewed journals and international conferences, and is the principal inventor on more than 40 issued patents.
Dr. Cai gave a couple of undergraduate and graduate courses, including ‘LED and Photovoltaic system’, ‘Defects in Semiconductors’, ‘Semiconductor Science and Technology’, ‘Peking Opera Appreciation’, and ‘Travelling: The end of Rainbow’. In his spare time, Cai has been active in performance of Peking opera, play of badminton, and repair of chinese ancient books.
