EE - Fabricating superconducting devices
In this project, the students are expected to fabricate superconducting devices, ferroelectric capacitor with superconducting electrode, in the cleanroom. Working with Physics department, we will aim at demonstrating the functionality of tuning the superconductor characteristics with ferroelectric polarization switching. Such devices are very useful for the superconducting electronics, which promises ultralow energy for computing.
The Nanoelectronic Devices and Systems lab directed by Prof. Kai Ni is working on the foundational technology that can enable the next generation computing and storage. Our group works on the state-of-the-art semiconductor devices that can potentially transform the modern memory hierarchy and support energy efficient computing. By working on the project, the student has a chance to developing necessary skills to work in semiconductor industry. In addition, the lab is well connected with industry, such as Samsung, Intel, Micron, etc. The students will have a chance to interact with industry for career development.
