Grant: Canada Research Chairs
University of Waterloo
$200,000.00
Micro and Nano Integrated RF Systems
FY 2018-19
Summary
This Canada Research Chair in Micro and Nano Integrated Radio Frequency (RF) Systems focuses on introducing a new class of RF devices and systems that leverage the myriad benefits of having integrated systems with both electrical and mechanical functionality on a single chip. The research employs the Micro/Nano-ElectroMechanical System (MEMS/NEMS) technology and the Complementary Metal-Oxide-Semiconductor (CMOS) technology to develop a wide range of novel RF CMOS-MEMS devices and integrated systems for communication and nano instrumentation applications. This research program will train several students in RF engineering, MEMS and Nanotechnology.
