Hayden Taylor,
Assistant Professor, Mechanical Engineering
Hayden Taylor is an Assistant Professor of Mechanical Engineering at the University of California, Berkeley. He holds B.A. and M.Eng. degrees in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from Cambridge University and a Ph.D. in Electrical Engineering and Computer Science from MIT. His research spans the invention, modeling and simulation of manufacturing processes. His group is particularly focused on processes that can be used to fabricate extremely rich and complex, multi-scale geometries, such as are found in semiconductor integrated circuits and biological tissues. Past work has addressed plasma etch, polymer bonding, chemical mechanical polishing, and mechanical exfoliation of van der Waals-bonded solids. He has particular expertise in mechanical lithography processes including micro-embossing and nanoimprint lithography. Current research activities have the following themes: (A) contact mechanics in materials processing, (B) surface engineering for heat and mass transfer, and (C) multi-scale additive manufacturing, including computed axial lithography.
