Professor Daping Chu is the Chairman of CAPE (Centre for Advanced Photonics and Electronics) and Head of Photonics and Sensors Group in Cambridge University Engineering Department. He was the Executive Researcher at the Cambridge Research Laboratory of Epson until 2007, where he was responsible for the development of non-volatile ferroelectric random access memories (FRAMs) and inkjet technology for electronics and display fabrications. His research activity has been in the areas of semiconductor devices and materials, nanostructures and properties, non-volatile memory devices, novel display technologies, organic electronics and inkjet fabrication process. Current research interests include 3D phase-only holography for future displays and illuminations as well as optical communications, high brightness transreflective displays, laminated electro-active foils for solar shading and smart facade, flexible/printable electronics, and the development of low costs manufacturing processes.
Research interests
Professor Chu’s research activity has been in the areas of both theoretical and experimental condensed matter physics, semiconductor devices and materials, nanostructures and properties, ferroelectrics non-volatile memory devices, organic electronics and inkjet fabrication process.
His current research includes space light modulation using holography for true 3D displays, digital illumination and optical communications. Combining 3D image reconstruction with full parallax and occlusion effects and spatial interactions in spectrum and time domains will provide participants the immersive experience which never exists before. This is now being explored through research work to increase both spatial and temporal bandwidths and development of new approaches to best utilise the existing technology.
Energy saving, in particular in the built environment, presents a new challenge to electronic/photonic for innovative new technologies. Professor Chu’s research is focusing on the means for both the active modulation of the spatial profile and impact of lighting and the passive control of solar shading and radiation. Various successful approaches, including laminated electro-active foils (LEAFs) for retro-fitting and development at fundamental level of new devices and materials have been demonstrated.
Strategic themes
Energy, transport and urban infrastructure
Device-level research and development of new energy saving and control solutions for the built environment and lighting.
Inspiring research through industrial collaboration
Novel displays for large area and immersive experience; novel displays for true 3D views; and apparatus for solar shading and radiation control.
Other positions
Head of Photonics and Sensors Group
Chairman of Centre for Advanced Photonics and Electronics (CAPE) with CAPE industrial partners
Founder and CTO of ROADMap Systems
