We’re delighted to welcome Caroline to our lab! Coming from Zurich, she is pursuing her master’s degree in electrical engineering at ETH Zurich. During her semester thesis at Empa, Caroline will work on h-BN encapsulation of graphene nanoribbons for nanoelectronic device applications. We’re happy to have her with us!
Welcome
Hi! I’m Caroline, and I come from Zurich. I completed my bachelor‘s degree in electrical engineering at ETH Zurich, and am currently pursuing my master‘s degree there as well. I’m excited to do my semester thesis at Empa, where I‘m working on h-BN encapsulation of Graphene Nanoribbons for nanoelectronic devices.
