Position

University Professor Emeritus, Mechanical Engineering, and NEC Distinguished Professor of Engineering, University of California, Berkeley, CA, USA.

Thèmes de recherche

Microscale heat transfer: effects of short length scales, short time scales, and the material microstructure on thermophysical phenomena; thermal radiation.

Dr. Tien's recent efforts have been in the area of microscale heat transfer, including both spatial and temporal scales. His work on thermal conduction in thin films, quantum structures, and fast laser-material interaction processes laid the foundation for this currently most active field of heat transfer. He has also made contributions to the broad thermal-fluid transport discipline.
