Xinyu Zhou

Xinyu Zhou received the M.Sc. and Ph.D. degrees in electronic engineering from the City University of Hong Kong, Kowloon, Hong Kong, in 2014 and 2018, respectively. From 2018 to 2020, he was a postdoctoral fellow with the Department of Electrical Engineering at the City University of Hong Kong, Kowloon, Hong Kong. From 2020 to 2021, he was a postdoctoral research fellow with the Department of Electrical Engineering at Princeton University, New Jersey, USA, from 2021 to 2022. He was a postdoctoral fellow with the Department of Electrical Engineering at Stanford University, California, USA. He is currently an assistant professor (research) with the Department of Electrical Engineering at the Hong Kong Polytechnic University since October of 2022, Hong Kong SAR.

His main research interests include broadband high-efficiency and high-linearity power amplifiers in RF and millimeter-wave, and microwave passive circuits, and GaN MMIC circuits for wireless communication. He proposed the concept of harmonic injection in the Doherty power amplifier, which has achieved improvements in parameters including efficiency, power, and in-band linearity for the Doherty power amplifier. His research achievements have resulted in more than 50 publications in journals and conferences, two invited papers, and nine U.S. patents.

He is a Member of the MTT TC-12 Microwave High-Power Techniques Committee. He is a recipient of the First Place Award of the High Efficiency Power Amplifier Student Design Competition, IEEE Microwave Theory and Techniques Society (IEEE MTT-S) International Microwave Symposium (IMS) in 2017 and a recipient of the Second Place Award of the same Student Design Competition in 2018. Dr. Zhou is also a reviewer for over ten internationally referred microwave journals and conferences, including four IEEE Transactions and two IEEE Letters.
