We aim to discover fundamental properties of single molecules and nanostructured materials, invent new electronic and chem- and bio-sensor devices, and develop real-world applications. To reach the goal, we take a multi-length scale approach that integrates synthesis of molecules, fabrication of nano- and micro-structures, characterization of device properties, and validation of device functions. We have gathered a diverse group of researchers and students from electrical engineering, device physics, chemistry and biochemistry, and materials. We collaborate with organic chemists and theoreticians around the world, and work with researchers from Motorola, Intel, Dial, Biosensing Instruments and other local companies.

Our current research projects include:
• Molecular electronics and nanoelectronics
• Chemical sensors
• Biosensors and nano/microfluidics devices
• Electrochemical nanofabrications
• Instrumentation for analytical and biomedical research
