Achievement

In conjunction with collaborators in the Hutchison Lab (UO Chemistry), IGERT trainee Matt Fairbanks of the Richard P. Taylor lab (UO Physics), has worked to re-establish nanoparticle electronic device fabrication capabilities for his IGERT project. "Coordinating a complicated fabrication procedure between labs has been challenging, but I have learned and implemented the techniques needed to complete my portion of the device fabrication procedure (nanoscale lithography on SiO2/Si wafers). With this in place, we expect to complete nanoparticle devices ready for electron transport measurements within the reporting period," Fairbanks reports.
