MITRE's Nano Research and Development

Since 1992, MITRE's Nanosystems Group has been performing broad-based research and development (R&D) in nanotechnology. A unique strength of the group's technical efforts is its focus on systems engineering at the molecular scale.

Led by chief scientist James Ellenbogen and group leader Mark Taczak, the Nanosystems Group conducts research efforts in the following areas:

These systems engineering efforts in nanotechnology are supported by theoretical and experimental research, development, and engineering in areas such as:

  • Novel techniques for nanofabrication
  • Quantum device modeling and analysis
  • Carbon-based circuits and materials
  • Bio-nanotechnology
  • Hybrid power systems

The group's innovations in nanotechnology include key technical papers, inventions, and patents. The group also assists the U.S. Government in a wide range of activities including working with government officials in planning major nanotechnology R&D programs.

A key element of the MITRE Nanosystems Group is the participation by exceptionally talented high school, undergraduate, and graduate students. These student employees collaborate closely with senior staff; their joint efforts have contributed materially to the success of U.S. efforts in nanotechnology. This student mentorship program continues to contribute toward the education of the next-generation of highly skilled scientists and engineers in the U.S.
