About me

Curent Research

As part of the H2020 project M3TERA, James works on the development of first generation micromachined terahertz (THz) systems, aiming to enable the wide-spread use of low-cost THz technology throughout society.

Micromachining techniques allow for the creation of  highly-integrated THz waveguide devices and systems at a low-cost, high-volume scale. Current THz devices are prohibitively bulky and expensive, limiting their potential application. By combining micromachined waveguide devices with cutting-edge integrated circuit technology, a complete integrated platform for the creation of THz systems is formed. The M3TERA project aims to bring this technology to fruition to create a low-cost, high-speed communication link operating between 100 - 500 gigahertz. This goal has required the development of various micromachined waveguide interfaces and components, some examples of which are shown above.

For more detail on the work carried out in the M3TERA project, please see James' list of publications.

CV

James received the B.E. (Hons) degree in Electronic Engineering from University College Dublin, Ireland, in 2012 and the MSc. degree in Electrical Engineering from Chalmers University of Technology in 2015. While at Chalmers, he specialised in microwave engineering, MMIC design and VNA calibration and measurement techniques.

James joined the Dept. of Micro and Nanosystems in 2015. His current research lies in the area of THz MEMS sources, systems and measurement techniques.
