Biography

Dr. Chaoqiang Jiang is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering, Member of State Key Laboratory of Terahertz and Millimeter Waves, Member of Clare Hall, University of Cambridge, Member of Hong Kong Institute for Clean Energ at City University of Hong Kong since June 2021. He was a Postdoctoral Research Associate at University of Cambridge in Dr. Teng Long’s group from 2019 to 2021. Also, he is affiliated with Clare Hall Cambridge since 2021. He received his Ph.D. degree in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from The University of Hong Kong in 2019, supervised by Prof. K.T. Chau and Prof. C.C. Chan. In 2019, he was a Visiting Researcher at the Nanyang Technological University, Singapore. He received his B.Eng. and M.Eng. degrees both in Electrical Engineering and Automation from Wuhan University, in 2012 and 2015, respectively. His research interests include power electronics, wireless power transfer techniques, electric machines and drives, and electric vehicle (EV) technologies. Dr. Jiang is currently an Associate Editor of IET Renewable Power Generation, Guest Editor of IEEE Open Journal of Vehicular Technology. He has been rewarded with the First Prize in the Interdisciplinary Research Competition at the University of Hong Kong, and the Winner, CAPE Acorn Blue Sky Research Award at University of Cambridge.

Dr. Jiang is currently leading a research team at CityU - Lab for Advanced Power Electronics (LAPE), which mainly focuses on Electrical Energy and Power Conversion, and aims for a more energy-saving and green world. We are exploring new topologies, switching methods, materials, and systems to serve with more intelligent and efficient power generation, transmission, and conversion. We are continuously contributing to Sustainable & Renewable Energy, Transport Electrification, and Data Computing applications.
