Group members

We seek motivated undergraduate and graduate students interested in nano-electronics, micro/nanodevice fabrication, flexible hybrid electronics, low-dimensional nano-materials (1D/2D CNT, graphene, MoS2, etc), Semiconductor, wide-bandgap materials, wearable devices and sensors, bio-sensors, energy materials and devices, MEMS/NEMS, and materials science. Research projects in our nanoelectronics lab are highly multi-disciplinary. They involve the use of cutting-edge electrical/optical technologies to investigate some of the most complex and intriguing topics in materials physics and devices. To apply for a project in our research group, please send an email (jpark2@uottawa.ca) with (1) a short description of your interests, (2) an updated CV, and (3) a bachelor’s degree transcript and Master’s degree transcript for Ph.D. candidates.
