Nien-Hui Ge is a Professor of Chemistry at the University of California at Irvine. She received her B.S. and M.S. from National Taiwan University, working on NMR spectroscopy of quadrupolar nuclei. She received her Ph.D. from the University of California at Berkeley in the group of Prof. Charles Harris in 1998, focusing on two-photoemission spectroscopy of metal-dielectric interfaces. During her postdoctoral research in the Robin Hochstrasser group at the University of Pennsylvania, she was involved with the development of coherent two-dimensional infrared spectroscopy. She joined University of California at Irvine in 2002 and received National Science Foundation CAREER award in 2005. Her current research focuses on the study of chemical, biological, and material processes using a combination of ultrafast spectroscopy and microscopy (2D IR, SFG, s-SNOM) and plasmonics.
