ph.d-research topics in electrical engineering
I graduated with a Bachelor of Engineering (Electronic). I worked in Flextronics and Infineon before. In both companies, I involved in testing of assembled PCB (in Flextronics) and testing of IC (in Infineon). I plan to further PhD in UK, in the field of "Semiconductor Materials & Devices (SMD)" (one of the research groups in electrical engineering department of the university that I plan to join). A professor from the research group suggested the following research fields:
1) Fundamental semiconductor theory
2) Clean-room work & semiconductor device processing
3) Numerical modelling
4) Programming
5) Optical & electrical measurements
6) Design and making of circuits to undertake specialised measurements
Frankly, I hv no experience particularly in the research of "semiconductor materials & devices (SMD)". Kindly advise whether the SMD group can be considered part of "Microelectronic Engineering". Besides, kindly elaborate more about each field (1~6) mentioned above, as well as provide some research topics for each of them. I will appreciate very much if you could provide 1~2 (IEEE) papers that reflect each research field mentioned above. All comments and opinions are welcome! Thanks in advance.
