Dr. Yong Xie received his bachelor\\\\\\\\\'s degree from Northwestern Polytechnical University and completed his Ph.D. through a joint training program between Northwestern Polytechnical University and Ulm University in Germany. He is currently an Associate Professor and Master\\\\\\\\\'s supervisor.

Following his doctoral studies, he held positions as a MEMS Engineer at AVIC Institute of Automatic Control Technology, Visiting Scholar in the Department of Electrical, Computer, and Systems Engineering at Case Western Reserve University (CWRU), and Visiting Professor at the Institute of Materials Science of Madrid (ICMM-CSIC), focusing on research and development of MEMS and semiconductor devices.

In recent years, Dr. Xie has focused on semiconductor materials, devices, and microsystems, integrating cutting-edge artificial intelligence techniques to advance the development of novel semiconductor materials and next-generation detector devices, particularly for applications in the industrial Internet of Things (IIoT). To date, he has published over 50 peer-reviewed articles in journals such as Nano Research, Nano Letters, Small, Journal of Physical Chemistry Letters, and Applied Physics Letters, with over 1,500 citations and an h-index of 21.

Over the past five years, he has led multiple research projects, including those funded by the National Natural Science Foundation of China (NSFC) and the EU’s China-Europe Talent Program, the NSFC Youth Fund, the Shaanxi Provincial Key Research and Development Program, the Shaanxi Natural Science Foundation Youth Program, and key laboratory projects under the Ministry of Science and Technology. He also served as a key contributor to an NSFC Key Program. His achievements have been recognized with awards such as the Outstanding Doctoral Dissertation of Shaanxi Province, Outstanding Doctoral Dissertation of Northwestern Polytechnical University, First Prize in the Shaanxi Advanced Mathematics Competition, and the National Defense Science and Technology Commission\\\\\\\\\'s Outstanding Graduate Award.

Dr. Xie currently serves as a Youth Editorial Board Member for IOP Materials Futures and Space Electronic Technology (link).

He is currently a faculty member at the School of Advanced Materials and Nanotechnology, Xi’an University of Electronic Science and Technology (Xidian University), also affiliated with the National Engineering Research Center for Semiconductor Technology and the Ministry of Education Key Laboratory of Wide Bandgap Semiconductor Materials.

Dr. Xie was formerly a Visiting Scholar (Postdoctoral Researcher) at Case Western Reserve University in the United States, working with Prof. Philip X.-L. Feng—recipient of the U.S. Presidential Early Career Award for Scientists and Engineers (PECASE) and General Chair of the 2021 IEEE MEMS Conference.

He received his Ph.D. under the supervision of Prof. Wanqi Jie (School of Materials Science and Engineering, Northwestern Polytechnical University) and Prof. Klaus Thonke (Institute of Semiconductor Physics, Ulm University, Germany)
