The behavior and properties of macroscale objects are stable and predictable because they are the result of the average behavior of very large numbers of atoms
The semiconductor industry's remarkable progress in making integrated circuits smaller, faster and cheaper relies on continual improvements in photolithography
Observing and measuring the dynamic changes that take place at the nanometer scale during the synthesis and operation of active nanostructures is vital for
We use physics theories to understand and simulate the interaction of electrons, light, and mechanical probes with nanometer-scale structures, devices and
