The Institute for Electronics and Nanotechnology (IEN) enables Georgia Tech research, development, and deployment of Micro/Nano Enabled Electronic Systems and Nanotechnology and Nanoscience solutions for global challenges of a providing food, clean water, energy, healthcare, communications, and mobility. In doing so, our goals are to catalyze interdisciplinary collaborations and provide research support for these technologies across the Georgia Tech campus.

Our research focus is strengthened by organizing our efforts into 2 distinct, but overlapping efforts:

Nanotechnology at Georgia Tech

IEN is the focal point for all nanotechnology and nanoscience research at Georgia Tech by providing thought leadership, seeding new interdisciplinary research, and providing research and administrative support to faculty working in materials, energy, manufacturing, chemistry, electronics engineering, and biology. IEN also supports nanotechnology related facilities and infrastructure programs as the National Coordinating Office for the NSF National Nanotechnology Coordinated Infrastructure, and as lead for the Southeastern Nanotechnology Infrastructure Corridor.

 

Micro & Nano-Enabled Electronics Systems

 

IEN facilitates innovation in micro/nano-enabled electronics and photonics by catalyzing and translating research, connecting Georgia Tech researchers, companies & government agencies, and preparing the workforce.
