Neophytos Neophytou's Biography
Neophytos Neophytou received his B. S. degree in Electrical and Computer Engineering in 2001 and his M. S. degree in 2003 in the area of Microelectronics and Nanotechnology, both from Purdue University, West Lafayette, IN. He completed his PhD degree in 2008 under the supervision of Professors Mark Lundstrom and Gerhard Klimeck at Purdue University.
Neophytos's research interests include computational modeling of quantum mechanical electron transport through new channel materials such as carbon nanotubes, nanowires, graphene based channels and III-V materials. He is currently working on the effects of bandstructure on the electronic properties of nanoscale devices as well as the effect of atomistic variations and defects in their transport capabilities.
Neophytos has a contributor web page on nanoHUB.org.
He has worked on the following research projects:
- A 3D atomistic quantum simulator for realistic CNT structures. The work is published in [J_2006_7, J_2007_10, P_2006_3].
- A 2D ballistic model for the investigation of atomistic bandstructure effects.
The work is published in [ J_2008_19] - Bandstructure effects in Si nanowire electron transport.
