Publications and Patents

Here you can find many of the publications and patents produced by the MITRE Nanosystems Group over the years. Our work initially was focused in the area of nanoelectronics, but we have diversified in recent years and have begun investigating other areas and topics such as nanomaterials, nanosensor and nanopower systems, and multi-scale modeling.
