Youngjin Shin is a PhD candidate at MIT specializing in scalable field emitter array–based pulsed power systems, combining device physics, microfabrication, and system-level engineering to push vacuum nanoelectronics into the megawatt regime. With eight years of hands-on experience across cleanroom process development, large-batch transfers, and compact modeling, he has delivered record-setting FEA current density results and uncovered novel anode behaviors like negative differential resistance. His background spans mechanical engineering, semiconductors, and power electronics, informed by practical roles from cleanroom technician to machining lead and industry internships at Caterpillar. As an EHS representative and undergraduate mentor, he pairs technical depth with leadership and safety stewardship, and is pursuing MIT Sloan business training to translate deep-tech innovations into real-world impact.
