Deji is interested in research that crosses the boundaries of the entire nanoscience ecosystem including nanomaterials, nanodevices, applied physics, circuit design, and bioelectronics with applications in the areas listed below.
At the moment, opportunities exist for device modeling, and flexible nanomaterials/electronics research.

Fundamental science, electronics, and applications. Recently, we have also been investigating nanomaterials beyond carbon including 2D silicon (silicene), and 2D semiconductors such as transition metal dichalcogenides (MX2)


High-frequency, high-performance integrated circuit on flexible substrates for wireless communication systems


Ultra-low noise RF circuits


CHIC (CHip In Cell)
In-situ detection of chemical changes in human body at the cellular level can bring enormous benefits in diagnosis and in therapeutic monitoring. We are developing techniques to place micron-sized sensor chip inside each cell. It might revolutionize biochemical imaging by introducing the idea of replacing ''passive'' radiotracers with ''active'' IC chips. This may open up an array of new biomedical applications from novel medical diagnostic and therapeutic tools that operate at single cell level to a novel class of autonomously operating intrabody nanobiosensors.

Ph.D. Thesis

Abstract
In this dissertation, we report on our research to advance the understanding and development of carbon nanotubes into a functional nanotechnology that will enable novel applications and products. Our research approach is interdisciplinary in nature involving progress on many fronts including material synthesis, device physics and compact modeling, circuits, and monolithic integration with silicon substrates for optimum performance and integration. Specifically, this dissertation reports new results advancing the science and technology of carbon nanotubes including: i) analytical development of the physics of CNTs providing direct insight into the electro-physical properties, ii) experimentally-verified analytical current-voltage and capacitance-voltage characteristics of CNTs facilitating circuit design and analysis, iii) elucidation of the material science of nanotube synthesis enabling large-scale synthesis of aligned growth, and iv) monolithic integration of CNTs and CMOS for hybrid nanotechnology for future nanoelectronics.
