Metrology Lab
TQI aims to establish a state-of-the-art metrology facility for quantum enhanced measurements serving academic and industry users. Stay tuned for updates.
MRC
The mission of the Microelectronics Research Center (MRC) at The University of Texas at Austin is to perform education, research and development in materials and electronic devices.
The Microelectronics Research Center concentrates research in the following major areas:
- New device and integrated circuit structures, including advanced component development and process modeling
- Studies of hot electron transport in small geometry devices and the physics of scaled devices
Device processing including diffusion, lithography, rapid thermal processing, plasma etching, remote plasma, and thermal chemical vapor deposition of silicon and related film - Advanced crystal growth of compound semiconductor materials, including III-V multiple heterojunction structures, employing MBE and MOCVD
- New device structures for optoelectronic and photonic applications, and for microwave and millimeter-wave devices
- New approaches to device packaging and interconnects, including optical interconnects.

TMI
The Texas Materials Institute at the University of Texas at Austin was established in 1998 to ensure that UT-Austin achieves excellence in graduate education and research in the broad field of materials. The role of TMI is to be a “virtual” department that guides the destiny of materials science and engineering on the UT campus without imposing the limitations or boundaries inherent to departmental structures.
Primary Missions:
- To operate the graduate degree program in Materials Science and Engineering (MS&E). TMI recruits graduate students for this program, ensures appropriate coursework is available to educated and train scientists and engineers in the fundamentals of the field, provides research opportunities for these graduate students, and handles all associated administrative needs.
- To provide faculty and students on the UT-Austin campus with the instrumentation and associated infrastructure needed to conduct modern materials research. For more information on the equipment, please visit the instrumentation page.
- To promote interdisciplinary research in the area of materials at UT-Austin and to help coordinate all aspects of materials research and education among the participating departments.
- To serve as the Organized Research Unit for materials research and to provide the necessary infrastructure for those faculty who need these services.
