Welcome to the PEL Home Page


Welcome to the Physical Electronics Laboratory. The Physical Electronics Laboratory (PEL) was founded in 1976 by Dr. James Holm-Kennedy, for solid state research and development. The lab has moved to a new 6500 square foot facility which provides space for research, processing, testing, and computer use. In the Spring of 2004 the new Physical Electonics Laboratory opened in the Pacific Ocean Science and Technology (POST) building.

PEL facilities are available for undergrad, graduate and faculty research. The undergraduate laboratory and Senior project research enables students to receive hands-on fabrication training as well as a solid background in device electronics and practical laboratory operations. Graduate students are able to pursue thesis and dissartation projects in PEL while gaining valuable laboratory management experiece.
