The Nanotechnolgy research will be truly multi-disciplinary, bringing together Electronics, Physics, Biology, Computing and Engineering. One objective is to produce devices to functionalise carbon nanotubes. Expertise unique to Surrey on low temperature growth will be utilised in conjunction with large area plastic substrates for applications such as wrap-around displays, solar cells, large area sensors, and composites for aerospace and automobile sectors. We will also explore new device structures and novel architectures that will attempt to exploit one-dimensional conduction, and will examine devices to interface directly to biological systems. The focus of the systems integration and circuit design activites is to push the upper frequency limit of radio frequency and optoelectronic transceiver modules. Future wireless multimedia communication systems are expected to exploit the millimetre-wave spectrum. The research will investigate use of the nanoelectronic devices for these and other applications such as medical imaging systems based on bioelectro magnetic interactions.
