Tejinder Singh (Senior Member, IEEE), is a Principal Member of Technical Staff with the Office of the CTO at Dell Technologies, Canada, and an Adjunct Professor with the Department of Electrical and Computer Engineering at the University of Waterloo, Canada.[1] He is best known for his work on chalcogenide phase change material (PCM) germanium telluride (GeTe) based millimeter wave (mmWave) radio frequency (RF) components.[2][3][4][5] He has also worked extensively on various miniature technologies including but not limited to RF microelectromechanical system (MEMS),[6] Josephson Junctions based microwave devices[7], superconducting single flux quantum (SFQ) integrated circuits, low temperature co-fired ceramic (LTCC) based integrated circuits and monolithic microwave integrated circuits (MMIC).[8][9][10]
a draft statement
Dr. Singh received numerous awards for his contributions to science and technology. In recognition for his academic excellence and his contributions towards PCM GeTe based mmWave RF devices, he has been awarded the Governor General's Gold Medal[11][12][13], one of the highest Canadian honours in academic and research. Dr. Singh also received the prestigious Vanier CGS award (2017)[14][15][16] and Postdoctoral Fellowship[17] (2020) by the Natural Science and Engineering Research Council (NSERC), Government of Canada. He was also awarded President’s Graduate Scholarship (2017) by the University of Waterloo, Nanofellowship (2016, 2017)[1][18][19] by the Waterloo Institute for Nanotechnology. In a Canada wide competition held by CMC Microsystems, he was awarded Brian L. Barge Microsystems Integration Award for demonstrating monolithic integration of cutting edge novel wireless communication device for 5G communication.[20][21][22][23] His research bestowed numerous accolades including First Place SPC and Best Paper Award in 2019 IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium (IMS),[24][25], Top 10 Papers in IMS 2020, Top 4 Papers in IMS 2022, IEEE Harold Sobol Grant (2019), Best Paper Award in 2018 IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Workshop Series on Advanced Materials and Processes (IMWS-AMP), European Microwave Association (EuMA) Student Award (2018), six times University of Waterloo Faculty of Engineering Award (2015-20), PEO-SC Grant (2016),[26] IEEE MGM Award (2013, 2014), IEEE M. V. Chauhan Award (2013), IEEE B. R. V. Vardhan Award (2013) and IEEE Asia-Pacific Region-10 PG Research Paper Award (2013) to name a few.[1]
Early life and education[edit]
Dr. Singh was born on April 4, to industrial contractor Harjinder Singh and fashion designer Gurdeep Kaur in Ludhiana, India. He credits his father for igniting science and technology related interests in the early years of his life. He inherited his creative skills from her mother. Since childhood, he is keen in science and technology. Along with his school classes, he started learning piano at the age of 7. He got interested in computer programming and hardware at the age of 9. Within one year when he was 10 years old, he assembled his first 486DX2 computer. Since then, he kept learning computer programming and electronics.[27] After finishing high school (2004), he obtained Engineering Diploma (Dipl.) in Electronics and Communication Engineering from Ramgarhia Polytechnic College, India (2007). He have a Bachelor of Technology (B.Tech.) degree in Electronics and Communication Engineering (2010) and Master of Technology (M.Tech.) degree in VLSI Design (2012). He received Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) degree (with highest academic honor) in Electrical and Computer Engineering with a specialization in RF, Microwave and Wave Optics from University of Waterloo, Canada (2020).[28][1][2][3]
Engineering, education and research career[edit]
After completing his undergraduate degree, he started working as an electrical and electronics research engineer in the research and development division of a STM India. He contributed his skills in reducing e-waste generated by promoting and educating proper integrated circuit troubleshooting. He later was promoted as a microelectronics research engineer (2010 to 2012).[29] Along with his full time job, he founded Bullscrado, Inc., a start-up company focusing on commercializing the smart-cards within under-developed communities in India (2011-2014).[30][31] Bullscrado also developed custom CRM solutions for local industries. He started teaching full-time undergraduate university courses after completing his Master's degree in 2014. During this time, his biography was included in the Marquis Who's Who in the World (2016) and also in the Who's Who in Science and Engineering (2016).[32][33][34]
He continued his research endeavours as an independent researcher after obtaining Master's degree. He joined the University of Waterloo for higher education. During his time at the University of Waterloo, he volunteered for many academic and administrative related duties. He has also taught courses as a graduate teaching assistant and sessional instructor (2016-20).[35][36]
Dr. Singh joined NASA Jet Propulsion Laboratory (JPL), California Institute of Technology (Caltech), Pasadena, USA and started working on developing tunable optical diffraction gratings for deep space research (2020-2021). Along with his appointment at NASA/JPL-Caltech, he held a Research Assistant Professor position at the University of Waterloo, Canada from 2020-2021.
He has served as a Chair of the ECE-Gradate Student Association (2016-17), Vice-Chair IEEE LP Student Branch (2012-14), Marketing Advisory Board Member at Waterloo Residences (2015) and IEEE Mentor (2015-19). He was elected as Senior Member of the IEEE (2022).
Dr. Singh is involved with the IEEE Microwave Theory and Technology Society (MTT-S)[37] serving as an Editor-in-Chief for the IEEE MTT-S Student Newsletters[37][38], Managing Editor for the IEEE MTT-S e-Newsletters[39], Technical Program Committee Member of the IEEE MTT-S International Microwave Symposium (IMS 2022), Member of IEEE MTT-6 Technical Committee (TC)[37], Affiliate Member of MTT-13 TC[37], Ad-Com Member for MTT-S Electronic Information Committee[37], and Chair of Professional Activities, IEEE Kitchener-Waterloo Section[40]. He is also serving as an Associate Editor for the Microsystems Technologies Journal published by Springer-Nature[41]. He is a reviewer of more than 30 refereed journals including 17 IEEE journals.
