Quantum Interference Devices (SQUID) bio-sensors, and Qubits (Quantum Bits) for quantum information
storage; c. Design, fabrication and characterization of nano-building-blocks (thin films, nanowires,
nanochannels, nanotubes, nanoparticles) for nano- and micro-electro-mechanical systems (N/MEMS) for

Dr. Yavuz received the British Council Partnerships for Excellence Postdoctoral Bursary International
Award in 1997 for his work on high-TC superconductors. He received the Japanese Society for the
Promotion and Science (JSPS) Fellowship in 2006, 2007 and 2008; and was awarded US Pi-Tau-Sigma,
National Mechanical Engineering Honor Society Award in 2003. He was one of the founding members of
the Texas A&M University Interdisciplinary Graduate Materials Science and Engineering Program
established in 2003, and Nanotechnology Collaborative Graduate Program at the University of Waterloo.
He is currently the director of the Nano/Micro-Systems Research Lab supported by Canada Funding for innovation (CFI) since 1995.
He is cited as one of the most prominent nano-researchers in Canada by the Ontario Provincial Government,
and was invited in 2007 and 2009 by the Canadian Ambassador for Japan as one of the Canadian Delegation to promote Canadian nanotechnology research in Tokyo, Japan.
Most Significant Contributions to Research and/or to Practical Applications
Developed a production tool that can be used to create templates for nano-electronics. This has been
enabling the fabrication of radically new devices and materials such as quantum computers. He has
developed the idea that vortices (nanoscale non-superconducting domains in a superconducting matrix) in
these templates can be engineered to make for self-assembly manufacture of magnetic particles into new
nano-structured materials and nano-scale electronic devices such as bio-SQUIDs and Qubits (US Patent, M.
Yavuz et al, “Method and System for Storing Information Using Nano-Pinned Dipole Magnetic Vortices in
Superconducting Materials, Jr., # 6,787,798, September 7, 2004).
Pioneered developing smart magnetic thin films for the levitation of N/MEMS (flying MEMS). His
contribution in this research is in developing design and fabrication of magnetic thin films and MEMS
gripper materials using ferromagnetic thin films for the magnetic levitation (US Patent Application, MEMS
Magnetic Levitation, Application No: 60/847934, Sept 29, 2006.
Developed graphene based NEMS devices interconnection packaging, metrology and integrating them
into MEMS and conventional CMOS systems (N. Udayakumar, A. Chakraborty, M. Irannejad, B. Cui, A.
