Research

The broad scope of Nanoscience requires the strongly interactive vertical integration based on Nanoscale building blocks, giving rise to new device modalities, and ultimately producing new information technologies at the systems level. Equally important is the horizontal integration that embraces more traditional academic disciplines. Research at CNSI includes faculty, students and postdocs from 11 different Academic Departments.

CNSI promotes and facilitates the speedy and robust transfer of nanosystems innovation to the marketplace, and by marrying educational and research opportunities, CNSI produces broadly trained scientists and engineers capable of sustaining California's leadership in nanotechnology into the future. Work done at the CNSI links together nanostructures to produce behaviors and information that grow exponentially with system complexity. To produce and understand such complex nanosystems that incorporate biological and electronic nanostructures requires fundamentally new approaches to modeling, imaging, characterization, and data analysis.
