Recent research in the ECTM department has shown that it is possible to create MEMS devices from SiC-CNT which is great for use in high temperatures or around harsh chemicals.
However, as the process flow is currently young, the material has not been fully mechanically and electrically characterized, and optimizations are still possible to allow better sensor properties.
My research topic has not been fully decided yet, but my goal will be to advance SiC-CNT technology either characterizing unknown material properties or by improving the process flow.
