Case Summary:

This time we were given the opportunity to work with an electrical engineer from Taiwan specializing in improving the efficiency and cost of optical electronic devices, including LCD displays and hard drives, as well as items used daily by the public. We submitted extensive documentation proving the high significance of his contributions to his field, including his 13 peer-reviewed journal articles as well as numerous conference papers - a body of work that had received 231 citations by the time we filed his case. The great majority of these citations are from independent researchers distributed worldwide, demonstrating the wide reliance upon and recognition of our client’s work in his field. An independent recommender affirmed the importance of his work: “I could not emphasize enough the importance of [Client’s] research to advancing several different disciplines because of the versatility of its application to photovoltaics, miniature hyperspectral imaging, information security, general entertainment, national defense and more.” We successfully demonstrated that our client’s continued employment in the field would benefit the people of the United States as a whole as well as his fellow researchers, and argued that he would serve the national interest to a significantly greater degree than others with similar education and experience. His NIW petition was approved in 4 months and 15 days.
