Biography
Aravinthan Athmanathan received the M.Sc. degree in electrical engineering from the Swiss Federal Institute of Technology, Lausanne (EPFL), Switzerland, in 2011. He joined IBM Research-Zurich, Ruschlikon, Switzerland, in 2010, where he is currently pursuing his doctoral thesis in collaboration with the Microelectronics Systems Laboratory (LSM) at EPFL. His doctoral thesis is focused on modeling and reliability aspects of multilevel-cell phase-change memory.
He has been involved in IC design of READ/WRITE architectures for phase-change memory. His research interests include readout metrics for emerging non-volatile memory technologies, device characterization and reliability analysis of exploratory memory arrays and finite-element method based modeling of thermal and electrical transport in memory devices.
