Device Materials Group
Permanent URI for this community
The Device Materials Group is the largest in the Department of Materials Science at the University of Cambridge with four academic staff, and a large number of post-docs, research students and visiting scientists. In 2001 the group was awarded one of the first Materials Platform Grants by the Enigineering and Physical Sciences Research Council (EPSRC). The group embraces world-leading research on materials for various types of microelectronic device, functional oxides for memory and power conduction and the science of thin film deposition.
The Group has as its focus the understanding, development and application of functional materials: in particular, magnetic, ferroelectric, semiconducting and superconducting materials for device and conductor applications. For further information about any of these research areas, our publication list and facilities please see our research pages.
The group is based in the Annexe of the Materials Science Department on Pembroke Street. Its clean room facilities recently moved to the University Nanoscience Centre on the West Cambridge Site.
