EDUCATION: 1993 – Master of Science degree in Atomic and Molecular Physics from Faculty of Physics, University of Bucharest. 2001 –Ph.D.degree in Condensed Physics Matter (Magna cum Laude), from University of Bucharest. The thesis is dedicated to the theoretical and experimental study of deposition kinetics, optical,electrical and structural properties of amorphous and crystalline silicon, silicon nitride, silicon oxynitride and silicon-rich nitride and doped and undoped SiO2 CVD thin films. POSITIONS HELD : 2006- Tyndall National Institute , Cork, Ireland, Staff Research Scientist, Optical Spectroscopy Laboratory Manager 2002-2006 National Microelectronics Research Centre, Cork, Ireland, Post Doctoral Fellow 1999–2001 National Institute for R&D for Microtechnologies, Bucharest, Romania: Senior Researcher: research, development and characterization of CVD thin films for semiconductors and MOEMS technologies 1995- 1999 National Institute for R&D for Microtechnologies, Bucharest, Romania: Process Engineer: APCVD&LPCVD process sustaining and development for MOS and microsensors technologies 1993- 1995 National Institute for R&D for Microtechnologies, Bucharest, Romania: Process Engineer: APCVD process sustaining and development for MOS technologies. EXPERIENCE : Dr. Mircea Modreanu has obtained a Ph.D. in Condensed Matter Physics in 2002 from the University of Bucharest, Romania. He has received Research Professor Fellowships from PHELMA-INPG Grenoble, France (2013-2014) and recently (2019) from the Japan Society for Promotion of Science (JSPS).
Dr. Mircea Modreanu joined Tyndall National Institute-University College Cork Ireland in 2002 where he is Principal Investigator working in several EU-funded research projects.
Dr. Mircea Modreanu currently is Project Coordinator for the H2020 EIC FET Proactive project Nanomaterials enabling smart energy harvesting for next-generation Internet-of-Things (NANO-EH, Grant No 951761, 2020-2023) and also Principal Investigator in two other EU H2020 projects, namely FET Open PHEMTRONICS (2020-2023) and ICT NANOSMART (2019-2022).
Dr. Mircea Modreanu has over 25 years of track record in material science (with a particular focus on oxide materials), in developing novel materials for microelectronics and optoelectronics application, and in optical spectroscopies for thin films and interfaces. He has established expertise within the area of optical spectroscopies (spectroscopic ellipsometry, optical spectrophotometry, and Raman and IR spectroscopies) for the studies of thin films and their interfaces. He has extensively researched the growth of HfO2 and ferroelectric HfZrO by several growth techniques ( e.g. E-beam, MOCVD, and ALD) for future CMOS technologies. He has also explored other metal oxides for microelectronics and optoelectronics applications (e.g. ZrO2, La2O6, Lu2O6, Ta2O5, Ba-doped SrCu2O2, Sr-doped Cu2O, ZnO, TiO2, BaCu2O2 and Gd2O3) and as well emerging two-dimensional materials such as graphene, MoS2, HfS2, and PtS2. In a recently funded H2020 FET Open project, PHEMTRONICS Dr. Mircea Modreanu’s research interest was extended to novel phase-change materials such as GaS, GeS and Sb2S3 for ultrafast optoelectronic applications.
