Kaushal Vora

Dr Kaushal Vora is a Distinguished Professor in the Department of PHY at The Australian National University. His research interests include micro/nano fabrication of silicon and III-V based devices, thin-film deposition and patterning of metal and insulator layers, optical waveguides, solar-cell devices, p-silicon nanowire growth, and nano-replication techniques. He joined ANU in 2009 as a process engineer for the ANFF ACT node and has developed a wide range of processes for flagship equipment such as Electron Beam/Thermal Evaporator, Inductively Coupled Plasma Etching, Nano Imprint Lithography/Hot Embossing, Plasma Enhanced Chemical Vapour Deposition, and Sputter system. His work includes developing processes to fabricate densely-packed high aspect-ratio microstructures using x-ray lithography and integrating microfluidic channels with optical waveguides for low-cost biosensors.

Kaushal Vora is a researcher at the Australian National University with expertise in nanofabrication, thin film processing, and solar technology. His work focuses on developing advanced nanoscale materials and devices for energy applications. Vora's research includes the fabrication of semiconductor nanowires for high-efficiency solar cells, the optimization of thin film deposition techniques, and the design of nanoantennas for nonlinear optical effects. His publications explore the synthesis of novel materials such as Ni3N/Ni and Cu2SnS3 films, as well as the fabrication of support structures to prevent stiction in high aspect ratio nanofabrication processes. His contributions span both fundamental research and applied technologies in photovoltaics and nanosensors.
