From The Bottom Up
The fabrication and characterization of devices and systems on the small scale can lead to new structures, sensors, and actuators that transform our lives – from improving the functionality of our portable electronics, to keeping us safe in (and perhaps helping us drive) our automobiles, to more efficient energy use in buildings, to medical implants that can save our lives. At the Singh Center, a broad range of technical tools and an equally diverse range of human expertise come together to study how systems at the smallest scales operate and how they can be improved.
