centerNanoscale Science and Engineering Center
The Nanoscale Science and Engineering Center (NSEC) is a collaboration among Harvard University, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the University of California—Santa Barbara, and the Museum of Science—Boston with participation by Delft University of Technology (Netherlands), the University of Basel (Switzerland), the University of Tokyo (Japan), and the Brookhaven, Oak Ridge, and the Sandia National Laboratories.
The NSEC combines "top down" and "bottom up" approaches to construct novel electronic and magnetic devices with nanoscale sizes and understand their behavior, including quantum phenomena. Through a close integration of research, education, and public outreach, the Center encourages and promotes the training of a diverse group of people to be leaders in this new interdisciplinary field.
Participants from institutions other than Harvard include: Raymond Ashoori, MIT; Moungi G. Bawndi, MIT; Don Eigler, IBM; Arthur Gossard, UCSB; Marc A. Kastner, MIT; and Pierre Petroff, UCSB.
NSEC at Harvard is supported by the
National Science Foundation.
