Rate My Professor W Vandana Devi

Dr. Wangkheirakpam Vandana Devi serves as an Assistant Professor in the Department of Electronics and Communication Engineering at the National Institute of Technology Manipur. She obtained her B.Tech. in Electronics and Communication Engineering from Visvesvaraya Technological University, Belgaum, in 2015, an M.Tech. in Microelectronics and VLSI Design from the National Institute of Technology Silchar in 2018, and a Ph.D. in Nanotechnology from the National Institute of Technology Silchar in 2022. Her doctoral thesis, supervised by Prof. Brinda Bhowmick, focused on the performance assessment of vertical tunnel field-effect transistors from theory to sensing applications. Currently, she is the Faculty In-Charge of the Microelectronics and Nanoelectronics Laboratory at NIT Manipur. Dr. Devi holds several key administrative positions, including Member Secretary of the Department Undergraduate Programme Committee, member of the Departmental Postgraduate Programme Committee, member of the Finance Committee, and representative on various departmental academic and research committees. She contributes to the academic community through supervision of Ph.D. scholars and participation in institute-level decision-making bodies.

Dr. Devi's research specializations include electrical characterization, modeling, and simulation of micro/nano electronic devices, semiconductor device physics, opto-electronic devices, sensors, and advanced CMOS device reliability. She is a member of the IEEE Electron Devices Society. Her scholarly contributions feature key publications such as 'Detection of SARS-CoV-2 using dielectric modulated TFET-based biosensor' (2022), 'Linearity performance and intermodulation distortion analysis of D-MOS vertical TFET' (2021), 'Optimisation of pocket doped junctionless TFET and its application in digital inverter' (2019, IET Micro & Nano Letters), and 'Optimized Channel Length and Off State Current for InAs/Si Heterojunction TFET' (2025). In recognition of her guidance, a student team she mentored alongside Prof. Aheibam Dinamani Singh received the Best Design Award at the 38th International Conference on VLSI Design & Embedded Systems in 2025 for developing a Helmet Detection System using Texas Instruments' AM62A processor, which automatically locks vehicle ignition without a helmet to promote road safety. Dr. Devi has also served on technical program committees for conferences including IEEE Silcon and the International Conference on Micro/Nanoelectronics Devices, Circuits, and Systems.
