Our research

Research at Physics, Electronics and Mathematics

In mathematics, research is conducted on inverse problems with applications in mathematical biology and telecommunication, computational mathematics, integrable systems, harmonic analysis and partial differential equations in metric rooms. The research in communication electronics affects, among other things, sensor networks, meta materials and six-port technologies, in physical electronics and nanotechnologies we explore sensors in medicine/biology and the environment and much more. We also have research didactics for engineering education.

Research groups

Physical electronics and nanotechnology

Physical Electronics and Nanotechnology

Our research covers a broad range of topics in materials and devices. At present, the main topics are on the growth, characterization, modeling and device realization of configurations based on nano-structures on different substrates.

Communication Electronics

We develop modular solutions with low power consumption for wireless sensor networks, wireless data transmission with focus on high data rate / low cost, and antenna and radio frequency design for broadband and multi-band communication systems.
