image013The research projects in our lab focus on the integration of MEMS and NEMS for both microelectronic and bio-sensing applications. We also develop new technologies for flexible electrodes that can be used for in vivo monitoring and diagnostics. Our group is strongly involved in industrial projects.





Current projects:
  • image003 Polymeric MEMS for medical applications
  • Properties of nano scale organic layers as diffusion barriers for sub micron interconnects
  • Dielectric spectroscopy of molecular and cellular phenotypes
  • Cell on chip technology for environmental monitoring
  • Integration of nano scale organic layers as gate insulators in field effect transistors
  • Construction of on-chip electro-analytical 3-electrode cell for bio-chemical sensing
  • Currently our group includes 8 PhD students, 12 MsC students, 1 post doc and 4 research staff.

Major equipment include: electro and electrochemical characterization systems, organic glove box, high vacuum oven and optical detection system for biological signal,
