Our nanotechnology research primarily focuses on energy and electronic applications of carbon nanotubes (CNTs). The transition of basic theoretical nanotechnology into tangible products is our core goal.
As scientific inquiries in nanoscience progress, the opportunity for nanotechnology breakthroughs continue to expand. The smaller the technology - whether a memory chip for a supercomputer or a tiny machine racing through the body to detect cancer - the greater the chance for a large societal impact.
