Shreyes Nallan

PhD Student, Materials Science and Engineering

Bio

Shreyes Nallan is a Ph.D. candidate in the Electrical and Computer Engineering department at Carnegie Mellon University. He received a B.S. in Electrical Engineering and a B.S. in Physics from Santa Clara University in June 2020, and an M.S. in Electrical and Computer Engineering from Carnegie Mellon in 2022. He has been a Ph.D. student within DSSC since 2021.

His research interests lie in the interplay between fundamental physics and device engineering -- how new materials and new architectures can enable fascinating and unusual behavior at the nanoscale. Throughout his time at DSSC, he has approached such problems through a combination of first-principles theoretical analysis, numerical simulations with Python and MATLAB, and experimental work involving epitaxial deposition, materials characterization, cleanroom nanofabrication, and device testing.
