MSc (Research) Electronics and Nanoscale Engineering

The Electronics and Nanoscale Engineering research division is home to more than 70 research students working in fields as diverse as atomic force microscopy, quantum sensors, high speed optical devices and atomistic device simulations.OverviewYou will have access to the James Watt Nanofabrication Centre (JWNC) and the Kelvin Nanocharacterisation Centre. The JWNC holds a number of world records in nanofabrication including for the performance of nanoscale electronic and optoelectronic devices.Over 250 international companies have worked with the JWNC in the last five years. Over 90 different universities from around the globe collaborate with us in nanoscience and nanotechnology.Research areasThe Electronics and Nanoscale Engineering research division carries out leading-edge research in the following areas:Semiconductor Device ModellingStatistical variabilityMonte Carlo transportQuantum transportReliabilityCompact modelsCircuit simulationProcess simulationMolecular electronicsOptoelectronicsSemiconductor lasers, amplifiers and LEDSNonlinear opticsPhotonic integrationNanophotonicsQuantum sensorsMicro and NanotechnologyAtomic force microscopyElectromagnetics designMicrosystem technologyUltrafast systemsHigh frequency electronicsNano-Electronic diamond devices and systems.
