Microelectronics
Faculty of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering

He received PhD degree from the National Yang-Ming Chiao Tung University, Taiwan. Currently, he is working as a Postdoctoral Researcher under Prof. Hannu-Pekka Komsa in the Microelectronics Research Unit (MIC). His research focuses on Semiconductor Device Physics, Modeling, and Design, with an emphasis on next-generation nanoelectronic devices.

His expertise includes advanced transistor architectures such as gate-all-around (GAA) and complementary FETs (CFETs), as well as steep-slope devices including tunneling FETs (TFETs), negative capacitance FETs (NC-FETs), and ferroelectric FETs (FeFETs). He also works on emerging material systems, including ferroelectric oxides and IGZO-based devices, targeting low-power, high-frequency, and optoelectronic applications.

Dr. Thoti has over seven years of experience in TCAD-based simulation and develops physics-based models to analyze carrier transport and device behavior. He also works on compact model development and implements device models in Verilog-A to enable circuit-level simulation and device–circuit co-design. His current research focuses on integrating advanced devices into memory applications, including SRAM, DRAM, and non-volatile memory concepts, aiming to enhance energy efficiency and scalability in future computing systems.
