About us

The W.M. Keck Laboratory for Integrated Ferroics was made possible by a generous grant from the W.M. Keck Foundation, for the purpose of investigating ultra-sensitive magnetic sensors and nanofabricated neural probes for electro-magneto-brain activity mapping (EM-BAM). Our research interests include novel integrated magnetic, ferroelectric and multiferroic materials and microsystems for sensing, memory, power, RF and microwave electronics. Specifically, we work on materials and microsystems for biomagnetic sensing, micromagnetic neural stimulation, room-temperature electro-magneto-encephalography, different tunable RF/microwave components, including multiferroic antennas, tunable inductors, filters, phase shifters, isolators, circulators, etc., integrated thermoelectric materials and devices, materials and devices for vibration energy harvesting applications, etc.
