Infos

This book covers the state of the art in the theoretical framework, computational modeling, and the fabrication and characterization of nanoelectronics devices. It addresses material properties, device physics, circuit analysis, system design, and a range of applications. A discussion on the nanoscale fabrication, characterization and metrology is also included. The book offers a valuable resource for researchers, graduate students, and senior undergraduate students in engineering and natural sciences, who are interested in exploring nanoelectronics from materials, devices, systems, and applications perspectives. 

Hassan Raza is the founding Director of the Centre for Fundamental Research (CFR), Pakistan. He is also affiliated with the Abdus Salam International Centre for Theoretical Physics (ICTP), Trieste, Italy as an associate member. He received 'Magoon Award for Excellence in Teaching' from Purdue University in 2004. He is the recipient of 'Presidential Faculty Fellowship' in 2010 and 'Old Gold Fellowship' in 2011 from the University of Iowa. His research focuses on 'anything that is small' for solving the complex problems from theoretical, experimental and computational approaches. He has had the pleasure of teaching undergraduate and graduate students at the University of Iowa, Georgia Southern University, Rowan University, Quaid-e-Azam University, University of Engineering and Technology, and University of the Punjab. He was a postdoctoral associate at Cornell University during 2007-09. He received his PhD (ECE) in 2007 and MS (ECE) in 2002 from Purdue University, MS (Operations Management) in 2016 from the University of Arkansas, and BS in 2001 from the University of Engineering and Technology, Lahore.
