Department of Electronics and Nanoengineering

Nanoscience and Advanced Materials

The Nanoscience and Advanced Materials group is part of the Department of Electronics and Nanoengineering, Aalto University. The group is located in the nanofabrication research center Micronova. Research is mainly funded by external sources, especially Business Finland, Academy of Finland, EU and industry.

The group focuses on the research of nanomaterials, nanostructures, and advanced materials for use especially in nanoelectronics and optoelectronics.

Our current research topics include

-     2D materials
-     Nanofabrication
-     Energy harvesting
-     Neuromorphic devices
-     Quantum materials
