Tomás A. Palacios Gutiérrez (born 1978) is a Spanish–American professor and researcher in semiconductor technologies. He holds the chair Clarence J. LeBel Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology [1] [2] and serves as director of Microsystems Technology Laboratories (MTL). [3]
Palacios was born in 1978 in Jaén, Spain. [4] [5]
Palacios completed a Bachelor of Science in Telecommunications and Electrical Engineering from the Polytechnic University of Madrid in 2001, [4] followed by a Master of Science in Electrical Engineering from University of California, Santa Barbara in 2004. He then did a doctoral degree there which he defended in 2006, [6] under supervisor Umesh Mishra, with his dissertation titled Optimization of the high frequency performance of nitride-based transistors. [7]
Soon after finishing his doctorate, Palacios joined the MIT Electrical Engineering and Computer Science Department as an Associate Professor in 2006. [8] Since 1 July 2023, Palacios hold the chair Clarence J. LeBel Professor for "his groundbreaking research, excellent teaching and mentoring, and exceptional contributions to the department and to MIT". [9]
Palacios holds directorships in various centers and programs, including being founding director of the MTL Center for Graphene Devices and 2D Systems and MTL Gallium Nitride (GaN) Energy Initiative (MIT-GaN); [10] [11] Associate Director of SUPeRior Energy-efficient Materials and dEvices (SUPREME) Center; [12] [13] coordinator of 6A Masters in Engineering (6A M.Eng.) program from 2015–2023; [14] fellow of the Fundacion Gadea; [15] IEEE Fellow; [8] general chair and executive committee member for the 2022 IEEE Symposium on Very Large-Scale Integration Technology (VLSI) and Circuits. [16]
Palacios's research focuses on studying new materials and device architectures, especially those based on 2D materials and compound semiconductors, for applications in electronics, optoelectronics, telecommunications and other fields of technology. [17] [18] The work on novel structures includes new types of FinFET geometries like vertical GaN-on-Si that would be potentially more power efficient and could be used in power electronics applications. [19] [20]
Palacios and collaborators have taken steps to commercialize some of the research. This includes via the company Finwave Semiconductor Inc. of which Palacios is a co-founder. [21]
Palacios has received multiple awards and honors. Some are listed below.
