This defense presents my contributions towards general robotics at the microscopic scale. Namely, through the introduction of fully programmable, autonomous microscopic robots free to explore the microscopic world. The robots complete simple, but essential milestones for microscopic robots. The machines we build are small enough to experience the same physics as their biological counterparts, allowing […]

The rapid growth of data traffic in data centers and AI applications demands faster, more energy-efficient communication solutions to scale up parallel computing capabilities. This dissertation explores integrated photonic-electronic systems designed to significantly enhance data transfer rates and reduce energy consumption. By simultaneously using multiple wavelengths of light, these systems achieve data rates reaching terabit-per-second […] |

Emerging edge AI systems call for device-level approaches that are inherently low-power, secure, and capable of managing uncertainty. In this talk, I will share our recent exploratory efforts toward realizing on-device probabilistic intelligence using custom-designed semiconductor devices. I will introduce Gaussian transistors that support analog Gaussian activation and probabilistic inference by harnessing device-level variability. These […] |

The global climate crisis demands a shift to renewable energy sources. Solar photovoltaics (PVs) are widely considered the most feasible renewable technology to meet global energy demands, and solar photo-electrocatalysis is a promising approach to decarbonize industrial chemical production. However, scaling solar energy harvesting technologies to meet energy demands must be done economically and sustainably, […] |
