Ph.D. Fellowships Available

  • Ph.D. Topic: Exploring Carbon Nanotubes for Energy Efficient Integrated Circuits

Description: Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have been proposed as a candidate material to build next generation on-chip interconnects in electronics. Their unique electrical, thermal, and mechanical properties are expected to meet the challenges of miniaturization and heat dissipation of microsystems. To fully exploit the potential of CNTs in the interconnection application, a number of problems must be solved. Progresses must be made in CNT modeling and circuit analysis to improve the implementation quality of CNTs, and enhance signal, power and thermal integrity of circuits with CNT interconnect. Furthermore, CNTs must be efficiently and reliably integrated with existing design flows.

Major responsibilities: We are looking for a talented and highly motivated PhD student to join our activities in developing carbon nanotube based device and interconnect models for energy efficient circuits and architectures. Project will be guided a European funded project.

Position summary: The position is limited to a maximum of three years. Student will be located at CNRS-LIRMM/Univ. Montpellier () in Montpellier, France. CNRS is the top research institute in Europe in fundamental research.

For questions, please contact: Dr. Aida Todri-Sanial, CNRS-LIRMM, France,
