Welcome to the Epitaxial Nanostructures and Materials Group
Our research explores the synthesis of novel semiconductor nanostructures and materials, and the development of next-generation optoelectronic devices and (bio)sensors based on these structures.

​We employ state-of-the-art epitaxial growth (MBE and MOCVD), material characterization and fabrication techniques. We are currently seeking motivated, creative, hands-on and highly qualified students to join our group.

Our research is focused on

  • Optoelectronic devices (light emitters and detectors) integrated with Si technology/photonics
  • Biosensors
  • Optical/electrical nano-interconnects
  • Exploring new phases and strain states of matter
  • Realizing heterostructures with dissimilar materials
  • Quantum materials and phenomena
  • Integrating III-V nanostructures on 2D materials

Projects available

We are always seeking motivated, creative, hands-on and highly qualified students to join our group. Please contact Dr. Lewis about available positions.
