Dr. Arjun Shetty - B.Tech(MIT - Manipal), M.Tech(IIIt - Hyderabad), PhD(IISc Bangalore), Postdoctoral( Institute for Quantum Computing - Canada)
Arjun Shetty is a Postdoctoral Fellow at the Institute for Quantum Computing, University of Waterloo, Canada. Presently working as a Device Engineer in US
He obtained his Ph.D. from the Centre for Nano Science and Engineering, Indian Institute of Science in the area of III-nitride semiconductors.
His thesis involved the development of Schottky diodes and photodetectors using III-nitride thin films and nanostructures which were grown using molecular beam epitaxy.
Post his Ph.D., Arjun worked as a Sr. Device Engineer at Sandisk India Device Design Centre, Bangalore for two years.
His work at SanDisk was focussed on silicon NAND flash memory device reliability.
After that, he moved to his present position at the University of Waterloo. He is currently working on undoped AlGaAs/GaAs heterostructure devices for quantum applications, Si spin qubits and III-As nanowire photodetectors.
His research interests broadly span III-V semiconductors, quantum semiconductor devices, low dimensional quantum transport, optoelectronics and semiconductor device modelling.
