Kang Jinfeng received his B.S. degree in physics from Dalian University of Technology in 1984, and M.S. and Ph.D degrees in solid-state electronics & microelectronics from Peking University in 1992 and 1995 respectively. From 1996 to 1997 he worked on the new oxides applications in microelectronics at Institute of Microelectronics in Peking University as a post-doctoral fellow. In 1997 he joined the faculty first as an associate professor then professor in 2001. From 2002 to 2003, he was invited to work on high-k/metal gate technology at SNDL in National University of Singapore as a visiting professor. He is now a Full Professor of Electronics Engineering Computer Science School in Peking University. His research interest is to explore novel device concepts, structures, materials, circuits, and the system architectures for the applications of future computing and data storage systems.
He has published over 300 conference and journal papers, and was speaker of more than 20 invited talks to international conferences, societies, academia, and industry such as IEDM, ESSDERC, MRS, ASP-DAC, SSDM, ISCAS, AMAT, IMEC, IBM, DSI. His publications have been cited more than 2500 total citations excluding self-citations (h-index: 27) including 3 ESI papers. He has over 110 filed and 60 issued Chinese patents and 7 issued U.S. patents. He was ever awarded with 2nd Prize of National Award for Science and Technology Progress, 1st Prize of Ministry of Education Science and Technology Progress, and 1st Prize of Beijing Technology Innovation. He serves Editor of IEEE Transactions on Electron Devices (2016-present), IEDM PMT Sub-Committee Member (2013, 2014), VLSI-TSA Asia Pacific Subcommittee Member: 2009-present), IAB Member of CIMTEC (2016,2018). Through his mentorship, many of his former students have won IEEE Awards, including 3 IEEE EDS PhD Student Fellowships and 7 IEEE EDS Masters Student Fellowships.
