Associate Professor
Dr. QUAN Chen is an Associate Professor at the School of Microelectronics, Southern University of Science and Technology (SUSTech), holding this position since May 2025 after serving as Assistant Professor (2019-2025) and Research Assistant Professor at the University of Hong Kong (2012-2018). A Shenzhen high-level overseas talent, he earned his PhD from the University of Hong Kong and conducts cutting-edge research in electronic design automation. His academic credentials include: Ph.D. from The University of Hong Kong (2010) Master's degree from The University of Hong Kong (2007) Bachelor's degree from Sun Yat-Sen University (2005) Dr. Chen's research pioneers advanced EDA algorithms for large-scale analog/RF circuit simulation, post-Moore multi-physics analysis, and AI-assisted design technologies. His work addresses critical challenges in nanodevice modeling and quantum computing circuits, resulting in over 50 publications in top venues like IEEE TCAD and DAC, plus four Chinese patents. Analysis of his recent publications reveals dominant trends in exponential integrator methods for transient simulation, model order reduction techniques, and physics-informed machine learning for reliability analysis. His work bridges numerical mathematics with practical EDA applications across analog circuits, quantum hardware, and emerging memory technologies. Key recognitions include: Wu Wenjun Artificial Intelligence Science and Technology Award, Second Prize (2020) ICCAD Best Paper Award Nomination (2012) Dr. Chen actively recruits Postdoctoral Fellows, Research Assistants, and Graduate Students while leading major funded projects including NSFC key/general programs and Guangdong Provincial R&D initiatives. His industry partnerships with Huawei, Empyrean, and Guowei Group translate theoretical advances into real-world EDA solutions. He directs a specialized research group at SUSTech focused on computational methods for next-generation circuit design, fostering innovation in simulation algorithms and multi-physics analysis through academic-industry collaboration.
