Nur Zatil Ismah Hashim was born in Penang, Malaysia in 1986. She received the MEng. degree in Microelectronics from University of Sheffield, United Kingdom in 2010, and a PhD in Electrical and Electronics Engineering from University of Southampton, United Kingdom in 2015. Following that year, she joined School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Universiti Sains Malaysia as a Senior Lecturer.
She teaches several undergraduate courses such as Electronic Devices and Circuits and Analogue Electronics, as well as one postgraduate Master course entitled Semiconductor Devices and Solid-State Technology ever since she started working in USM.
Her current research interests include design, simulation, fabrication and characterisation of Si-based RF and low power devices, with particular interest in high resistivity silicon and nitride-based semiconductors.
- High resistivity silicon for RFICs
- Nitride-based semiconductors for low power device applications.
- CMOS fabrication and design processes.
- Failure analysis of IC packaging.
