| We pursue two important directions in our group:
- Novel Structures for the Biologically Important Detection
Solid State fabrication technology has matured over decades and is now identified as a key component for realizing novel nano-structures. We focus on developing devices and systems for the detection of biologically important molecules. Such sensors interface the top-down nano-fabrication capabilities with bottom-up molecular recognition and selectivity. The nanoscale biosensors benefit from the functionalized surfaces exhibiting extremely specific and ultra-sensitive detection properties.
- Biologically Mediated Fabrication
As the need of scaling viable sensors increases, natural bio-molecular recognition can play important role in enabling precise alignment and control of functional devices. The special chemical properties of such molecules are explored for fabrication at the atomic scales.
