Prof. Beresford's research focuses on semiconductor nanostructures, including synthesis, modeling, integration with microelectronics, and applications. Molecular beam epitaxy, the growth of semiconductors in ultrahigh vacuum using thermal beams of pure elements allows precise control of layer thickness and composition on the level of monolayers. Projects include nanostructures produced by pattern-driven epitaxial growth and direct conversion of biomolecular signals into electronic information.
