About

Mu Ku Chen is a pioneering researcher in the field of metalens optics and nanophotonic imaging systems, with expertise spanning flat optics, computational imaging, and next-generation display technologies. His most celebrated contribution, "Achromatic metalens array for full-colour light-field imaging" (2019), has garnered over 664 citations, establishing him as a leading voice in solving one of metalens technology's most persistent challenges — chromatic aberration — by enabling full-colour imaging through precisely engineered nano-antenna arrays. Building on this foundation, Chen has advanced the frontier of three-dimensional perception, demonstrating edge detection systems capable of operating from one to three dimensions using gallium nitride achromatic metalens arrays. His work on binocular meta-lenses for enhanced depth perception directly addresses the growing demands of spatial computing and virtual reality hardware, while his "Meta-Lens in the Sky" project showcases real-world deployment of polarization-independent metalens cameras in aerial applications. Collectively, Chen's research bridges fundamental nanophotonic design with transformative practical applications, positioning flat, ultra-thin metalens technology as a viable foundation for the next generation of compact imaging and immersive computing devices.
