Kieran Peleaux

Graduate Student Researcher
Electrical Engineering and Computer Sciences
Professor Clark T.-C. Nguyen (Advisor)
Ph.D. 2022 (Anticipated)

Kieran is currently pursuing his Ph.D. in Professor Clark T.-C. Nguyen’s research group in the Electrical Engineering & Computer Sciences department at UC Berkeley. Having completed his B.S. in Electrical Engineering at the University of Pittsburgh in 2014, his current research interests include the design and fabrication of novel resonant MEMS devices for applications in UHF filters, oscillators and RF transceivers. Primarily, he is looking for new ways to integrate CMOS and MEMS process technologies in order to realize fully monolithic integrated CMOS-MEMS transceivers.
