Topics for a potential master thesis includes:
- PV, solar cells
- Quantum technology
- Light emitted from solids, LEDs
- Nanotechnology
- Sensors, sensor technology
- Thermoelectricity
- Power Electronics
Interested in any of these topics or have an idea you want to discuss? Contact potential supervisors Eduard Monakhov, Andrej Kuznetsov, Lasse Vines, Justin Wells, Vegard Skiftestad Olsen, Marianne E. Bathen and Simon Cooil.
Think about whether you want your master thesis to have an experimental or a theoretical focus. E.g. do you want to spend most of your time in the lab/clean room or do you mostly want to do simulations? Please indicate if you think you prefer an experimental over a theoretical master thesis or vice versa when contacting potential supervisors.
