Research

We focus on building functional electronic/optoelectronic platforms for realizing a new concept of ubiquitous electronics and for studying fundamental science. We envision "Heterogeneous integration" as the key enabler to achieving this overarching goal in several aspects: (a) monolithic integration of low-dimensional and mixed-dimensional materials for new physical phenomena, (b) heterointegration of material building blocks into devices with new functionality and operation principles, and (c) 3D integration of these devices into multi-functional platforms for physical coupling, sensor fusion, and ubiquitous electronics.
