Nanolab is an interdisciplinary research group at Tufts University led by Dr. Sameer Sonkusale.

At Nanolab, we are interested in answering the following questions: "How can micro- and nano-electronics benefit lifesciences and medicine?", "Can we build single-chip sensors and instruments on silicon CMOS", and "how do we explore emerging concepts (e.g. metamaterials, plasmonics) and novel materials (e.g. carbon nanotubes, graphene) for new and improved functions in our devices, circuits and sensors?".

Some current research focus areas in our group are:

  1. Nanoelectrochemical Systems on Silicon
  2. CMOS Image Sensors for Scientific Imaging
  3. CMOS-Nano Integration: CMOS For Nanoassembly and Nanofabrication
  4. Circuits and Systems for Wearable and Implantable Biomedical Microdevices
  5. Analog to Information Converters and Compressed Sensing Front Ends
  6. Asynchronous Analog and Mixed Signal Design
  7. Active Metamaterial Devices, Circuits and Systems
  8. Digitally Assisted Analog Design

Reduced Graphene Oxide Chemical Sensor in the News

Our group's work on reduced graphene oxide (RGO) sensor appeared online at a new magazine Nanotechweb. The work elucidated the sensing mechanism in RGO using kelvin probe microscopy. Team members were Chris Kehayias (undergrad), Sam MacNaughton (doctoral candidate), Prof. Sonkusale (Electrical Engineering) and Prof. Staii (Physics). Congratulations!

 

Robbie wins an outstanding researcher award

Robert D'Angelo (Robbie) wins an "outstanding researcher" award in the school of engineering at the masters level. Congrats Robbie

 

Sam MacNaughton wins award for engineering education

Sam MacNaughton won the award for "outstanding contribution to engineering education" in the school of engineering of 2012-2013. Award recognizes extraordinary effort by a graduate student in enhancing engineering education through TA work, voluntary service or other effort. Congrats Sam!

 

Wangren succesfully defends his PhD dissertation

Congrats to Wangren Xu for succesfully defending his PhD dissertation on "Metamaterials with Active Circuits". He had to overcome many obstacles to get this far, including the rescheduling his date for defense due to the Boston marathon attacks. After graduation, he will join Prof. David Smith's group at Duke University as a postdoctoral researcher.
