      I am trying to find new ways to manufacture electronics so we can have new applications. If you have seen the new folding Samsung phone, to make (manufacutre) it involved new techniques because of its foldable nature and lots of research is needed for this type of thing. I am also look at creating new devices, but I research very fundemental aspects of them. I use many complex process to make my devices that involve producing very thin films of materials such as metals so I can then use them to make electronic devices and when I say devices I mean the small components (devices inside the chips) that make up the types of electronics you use everyday.

    In ATLAS at the Large Hadron Collider we use fast cameras to look the collisions. We capture charged particles rather than light and we need to do it in a few thousand-millionth of a second! In order to do this we need to design our own clever chips. We also use advanced electronics to transfer the large amount data at high speed!
