Research Interests
My research broadly focuses on designing and optimizing unconventional (more-than-Moore) architectures and technologies for energy-efficient, sustainable, reliable, and secure computing, for a wide range of platforms including embedded systems, internet-of-things (IoT), and high-performance computing systems. More specific more-than-Moore technology interests include (1) Silicon photonics; (2) Optical computing; (3) Neuromorphic computing; (4) In-memory computing; (5) Stochastic computing; (6) Monolithic 3D (M3D) integration; (7) Polymer and transparent conductive oxides based photonic devices and sensors.
