Micro/Nano Electronics and Sensors Technology

Research in the areas of micro- and nano-electronics and sensors technology has a long history of successful research output within the School of Electrical and Computer Engineering. These research areas also form primary research themes with Microplatforms Research Group and utilises the facilities of the Microelectronics and Materials Technology Centre.

Research in micro- and nano-electronics is underpinned by expertise in the synthesis of metal oxide nanostructures, sensors, microelectronic, and microfluidic devices and systems. Some of the current research activities include:

  • Synthesis of metal oxide nanostructures and nanostructured thin films
  • Nanotechnology enabled fuel cells and thermopower wave generators
  • Electronic characteristics of contacts to nanostructures
  • Microfluidic and dielectrophoretic manipulation of nanoparticles

Research in sensor technology covers applications in areas of biology, biochemistry, electrochemistry, optics, and gases and fluids. Sensing using surface acoustic waves (SAW) and growth of novel oxide nanostructures are technologies underpinning this research. The sensors research activities are conducted at the Sensor Technology Laboratory, which was established in 1982.
