Pranav Acharya

About me

A PhD research student at the University of Glasgow with a research interest in nanoelectronic devices and leveraging quantum effects to develop new technology. His PhD research project is NEGF (Non-equilibrium Green's Function) simulations of RTDs (Resonant Tunnelling Diode) with device variation, which provide them potential to for PUFs (Physically Uncloneable Functions) which can uniquely identify devices.
