Electrical & Computer Engin 597NE - ST-Nanoelectronics

This class covers the fundamental of the nanoelectronics discipline ranging from nanophysics, to nano structures and nanodevices. It provides first an overview of the fundamental physical principles required for understanding the electronic properties of matter at the nanoscale. From the basic description of quantum dots, wires and wells, we will review the main electrical property differences between atoms, molecules and nanostructures including Carbon nanotubes and Nanoribbons. An introduction to the electron transport properties in nanostructures is also provides.

In addition, this class features a seminar series to provide the students with a complementary coverage of the theoretical, computational and experimental aspects on nanotechnology; The seminar includes talks on nanofabrication, electronic structure calculations, information at the nanoscale, nanoenergy and applications, THz sensing, and nano computing.
