Adrian Mihai Ionescu is a Romanian and Swiss physicist and academic. He is full Professor at the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL), where he is founder and director of the Nanoelectronic Devices Laboratory.
Education
[edit]He received the B.S./M.S. degree in electronics and telecommunications, and the Ph.D. in microelectronics from the Polytechnic Institute of Bucharest, Romania in 1989 and 1994, respectively. He obtained a second PhD in semiconductor physics from the National Polytechnic Institute of Grenoble, France, in 1997.
Career
[edit]He has held staff and/or visiting positions at CEA-Leti, Grenoble, France, LPCS-ENSERG, Grenoble, France and Stanford University, US, in 1998 and 1999. He was a visiting professor at the Tokyo Institute of Technology in 2012 and 2016.[1]
He is the founder and director of the Nanoelectronic Devices Laboratory of EPFL.[1]
He is an IEEE Fellow since 2016 for contributions to the development of novel devices for low power applications,[2] and a member of the Swiss Academy of Engineering Sciences (SATW), from which he received the Outstanding Achievement Award in 2015.[1]
More than 600 of his articles were, as of 2023, published in scientific journals and conference proceedings.[3] He is co-founder and a member of the Board of Directors of Xsensio SA, a start-up developing wearable biosensors.[4]
Field of research
[edit]As director of the Nanoelectronic Devices group from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Lausanne (EPFL), Ionescu is focusing on these particular topics:
Beyond CMOS technology & devices
- Energy efficient digital and analog computation with steep slope switches: tunnel FETs and phase change switches
- Ultra-low power Tunnel FETs for biosensing and gas sensing
More-than-Moore devices & circuits
Non-silicon devices & circuits
- CNT resonators and circuit applications
- CNTs for programmable interconnects
- Graphene reconfigurable devices and quantum capacitors
Honors and awards
