Lin Wu (physicist)
Lin Wu is a Singaporean physicist specializing in computational nanophotonics, in phononics and plasmonics at the nanoscale, in the quantum resonance of nanostructures, and in their applications in biosensors.[1] She is an associate professor at the Singapore University of Technology and Design, in its Science, Mathematics, and Technology Cluster, and a senior scientist in the Agency for Science, Technology and Research (A*STAR) Institute of High Performance Computing.[2][3]
Education and career
[edit]Wu is a graduate of Nanyang Technological University, where she received a bachelor's degree with first class honours in 2005 and completed her Ph.D. in 2009.[2][3] Her doctoral dissertation, Modeling Of Electron Emission - Its Physics And Novel Applications, was supervised by Lay-Kee Ricky Ang.[4]
She worked as a researcher for A*STAR from 2009 until 2021, when she took up a joint position at the Singapore University of Technology and Design.[2][3]
Recognition
[edit]Wu was named as a 2026 Fellow of Optica, "for pioneering graphene-based plasmonic biosensors and quantum plasmonics, introducing plasma-inspired simulations that advanced quantum plasma modeling in solid-state systems".[5]
