Dr. Wei Wen Wong is currently a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Research School of Physics, Australian National University (ANU), and is affiliated with the Australian Research Council Centre of Excellence for Transformative Meta-Optical Systems (TMOS). He received his Bachelor’s degree from Multimedia University, Malaysia, in 2016, and completed his PhD at ANU in 2023. From 2016 to 2018, he worked as a Product and Failure Analysis Engineer at Cypress Semiconductor.

Dr. Wong’s research focuses on the epitaxy of low-dimensional compound semiconductor structures, as well as the design and fabrication of novel photonic, optoelectronic, and metasurface optical devices. He has co-authored over ten papers in high-impact journals, including Nano Letters, Laser & Photonics Reviews, and ACS Nano. He was a recipient of the Jim Williams Award at the ANU for excellence in research and teaching, and was selected to attend the prestigious Global Young Scientists Summit in 2023.
