Welcome to my website!! My name is Tomás Palacios and I am an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science of the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

Although I joined the EECS department in Fall 2006, I have been working on wide bandgap semiconductors for the last 8 years. These semiconductors are, probably, the most complete semiconductor family ever, and I am very interested in their use in four areas:

  • Power amplification at frequencies >100 GHz
  • Digital electronics in a beyond-Si scenerio
  • New concepts for biosensors and devices
  • Power generation and conversion

Please visit the Research section of this website if you want more information on any of these topics. And, feel free to contact me if you have any question or you would like more information about my group!!
