Unease
I received two offers from Micron and Intel. The choice of job and salary negotiation has been the number one source of uneasiness in these two weeks. The base salaries are roughly the same, considering the location and living expense. However, the nature of these two jobs is completely different.
The Intel job has very heavy responsibility and gives me plenty of room to grow. I am sure I can learn a lot by staying in this group. More importantly, the leader of this group is a Taiwanese with excellent skills and experience in this field. Working with him can bring out the best of my ability. The down side is that the job itself is extremely stressful and this situation will not improve in years.

Ecosystem in the lab
It’s my fourth year staying in my research group. Our group is primarily focused on organic materials and applications. Basically, there are three categories of research going on: first, thin-film transistor and circuit applications; second, thin-film transistor and sensor applications; third, solar cells.
I was in the tail of mass graduation as I joined the research group, seven students graduated in one year. As a result, the group size shrank from 13 to 6 in one year. In those six remaining students, I am the only international student.
