Class Rationale

The sustained evolution microelectronic, optoelectronic, magnetic, integrative, and biotechnological devices increasingly call for novel approaches to device design and materials manufacturing. Nanometer-scale science and engineering has the potential for revolutionizing the ways in which materials and products are created and the range and nature of functionalities that can be accessed. This class reviews the manufacturing challenges and revolutionary changes that these areas are facing, as well as prospective solutions bestowed by nanoscale approaches to device design and materials synthesis.
