Jingyu Lin
Lin Jingyu (林景瑜) is a co-inventor of MicroLED. In 2000, The husband-wife research team led by Hongxing Jiang and Jingyu Lin proposed and realized the operation of the first microLED and passive driving microLED microdisplay.[1],[2],[3],[4] In 2009, Their team and collaborators at Texas Tech University realized the first monochrome (green and blue) active driving microLED microdisplay in VGA format (640 x 480 pixels) by heterogeneously integrating microLED array with Si CMOS active-matrix driver.

Education
She received her BS in Physics in 1983 from SUNY Oneonta. She obtained PhD in Physics in 1989 from Syracuse University.
Career
Currently, she is a co-director of the Nanophotonics Center and is the inaugural Linda F. Whitacre endowed chair and Horn Distinguished Professor of Electrical & Computer Engineering within the Edward E. Whitacre Jr. College of Engineering at Texas Tech University (TTU). In 2008, she along with her husband Hongxing Jiang (a Horn Distinguished Professor, co-director of the Center for Nanophotonics and the inaugural Edward E. Whitacre Jr. Chair in the Department of Electrical & Computer Engineering at TTU), relocated their research team to TTU from Kansas State University where she was a Professor of Physics [10], [11]. She is an elected fellow of the National Academy of Inventors (2019), the American Association for the Advancement of Science (2018), SPIE - the international society for optics and photonics (2017), the Optical Society of America (2016), and the American Physical Society (2012).
