Condensed Matter Seminar: "Physics of graphene: our unique experimental approach"

Masa Ishigami, University of Central Florida
- DRL, A4

Nanoscale materials are sensitively influenced by atomic scale defects and adsorbates. Such sensitivities can be used to impart various functionalities to develop new device technologies, but they can also introduce…

Condensed Matter seminar: "Effects of substrate geometry on neuronal growth"

Cristian Staii, Tufts University
- DRL A4

Physical stimuli (stiffness of the growth substrate, gradients of various molecular species, geometry of the surrounding environment, traction forces etc.) play a key role in the wiring up of the nervous system. I…
