Data Information, Security and Management

   

The overall objective of our collective research faculty in the area of nanoscience is to investigate, theoretically and experimentally, interactions between noble metal, magnetic and organic nanostructures with biological materials for developing new sensors. On the materials science side, we are experimentally working to develop suitable nanomaterials for the construction of integrated optic chemical and biological sensors. Basic research is being implemented on transparent conducting nanomaterials for flexible display applications. In addition, the research group has built a chemical vapor deposition system and has begun synthesizing carbon nanotubes at JSU.
