Seeking New Members for Projects

The SEEDER group is recruiting members for the following projects. All applicants must be proficient in oral and written English. Interested candidates may apply by sending their resume or CV to kelvin dot xy dot fong at nus dot edu dot sg.

Reconfigurable Interconnect Scheme Using RRAM Devices

An open position is available for post-doctoral candidates with the following qualifications. Qualified applicants must possess a Ph.D. upon joining.

  1. Research Fellow (TCAD Modeling of Multi-terminal RRAM Device Structures)
    • Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering, Materials Science, Physics (Applied) or Mathematics (Applied)
    • The objective of the candidate is to:
      • Develop a COMSOL based TCAD simulator to simulate the behavior of multi-terminal RRAM devices
      • Use the developed TCAD simulator to explain and predict electrical measurements obtained from devices that are fabricated in the laboratory
      • Develop Verilog-AMS based compact models for various multi-terminal RRAM device structures and predict performance of the RRAM-based interconnect fabric

Skyrmionic Computing Microarchitecture
