Hugh Barnaby

Professor, School of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering

Hugh Barnaby is a Professor of Electrical Engineering at Arizona State University. His work focuses on the analysis, modeling, and experimental characterization of extreme environmental effects in semiconductor materials, devices and integrated circuits. Prior to ASU, he was an assistant professor at the University of Arizona. He has also worked as a staff scientist for the microelectronics division at Mission Reseach Corporation in Albuquerque, N.M. where he performed radiation effects and reliability analysis on VLSI digital and analog/mixed signal circuits. Hugh has ongoing research activities in advanced CMOS (bulk PDSOI, FDSOI, multi-gate), CMOS+X, bipolar, HBT, BiCMOS, solar, power device (super junction Si, UWG), and embedded memory technologies, targeted primarily for use in space-based applications. Hugh has been an active researcher in the microelectronics field for over 30 years in both industry and academics, presenting and publishing more than 300 papers during this time. He is an IEEE fellow 

Professor Barnaby's research interests include semiconductors for hostile environments, device physics and modeling, microelectronic device and sensor design and manufacturing, and analog/RF/mixed signal circuit design.
