MS students willing to commit to a Ph.D. will be considered. May. Needless to say, skills developed in this project are highly sought after by both industry and Universities. One highly creative individual is sought to join this long term project. We are working with some of the best scientists in the world to build a Molecular Computer, based on benzene-derived switches only 2 nm long. Being a brand new area, a broad individual is needed.
Creative potential is more important than specific skills.
However, some comfort in circuit design and VLSI is desirable. If you join this project, you will be one of the first engineering-centric Ph.D.s in the country with a strong nanotechnology emphasis. If you need more detail pleae read Architectures for molecular electronic computers. The appointment starts as soon as I find the right type of person. We are working on a project addressing design issues related to deep-submicron IC interconenct and inductance.
