Our research activities cover a range of topics concerned with the fundamental materials and physics issues surrounding advanced semiconductor devices, novel high speed electronic and optoelectronic devices, and advanced sensors and systems. There are 11 academic staff in the group all with established expertise in the micro- and nano-electronics field. There are also 18 research associates and 29 PhD students. The Head of Group is Professor Bruce Hamilton.
The group is superbly equipped for its research with extensive facilities for semiconductor growth, device fabrication, material and device assessment, circuit measurements and simulation.
We are also very active in the training and recruitment of students through our
PhD Studentship: Modelling of SiGe heterostructures for optoelectronic applications
Fully funded 3.5 year studentship
Each semester we run a series of group seminars (from both internal and external speakers).
