Center for Nanostructured Electronic Materials

The center is on a mission to make transformative advances in computing technology by developing new chemistry to wire molecules and nano-scale materials into electronic devices.

Symposium

CNEM presents the Symposium on Nanostructured Electronic Materials at the San Diego ACS Meeting March 25-28, 2012

About the Center

The Center focuses on the selective growth of nanostructures for integration into molecular electronics and the organization of nanoscale circuit elements on surfaces to create junctions and functional test devices.

 


A significant part of the Center’s work will focus on the important question of how to use molecules to replace bulk materials as components in integrated circuits.  There are several important challenges in this area:  how can molecular components be oriented on surfaces with respect to one another?  How can these components be connected into functional arrays? How can a finished hierarchical device be constructed in a stepwise manner without any of the steps damaging the previously formed architectures? MORE >>
