Micro/Nano System Integration and Reliability

Contact: GuoQi Zhang

We cover the research addresses the fundamentals and novel technologies of heterogeneous system integration and reliability, mainly in 4 research domains:
  • Wafer/packaging/module level system integration. Examples are advanced interconnection materials and technology; multi-functional System in Package; WBS based power electronics modules; optogenetics-electronics systems.
  • Sensor technology based on Wide Bandgap Semiconductors. Examples are GaN and SiC sensors for harsh environments and multi-functional sensor systems.
  • Designing for reliability. Examples are multi-physics and multi-scale simulation, modelling and optimization, from first principle, MD to FEM; digital twin; system diagnostics and prognostics; AI-assisted modelling.
  • Advanced 2D materials and devices: integration of 2D materials into semiconductor and packaging technology; fabrication and testing of high-performance sensors; development of scalable deposition methods
