One aspect of Dr. Wolkow’s research seeks to develop functional molecular devices in areas where silicon technology is weak, such as a molecular transistor, which promises enormous power savings. By using only one electron charge to achieve switching, rather than the 100,000 required by conventional computers, it could be the ultimate green technology for building electronics and computers.

Dr. Wolkow and his research team have also created the world’s sharpest object - the nano-tip - and are collaborating with Hitachi to deploy this remarkable technology. The ‘nano-tip’ instrument offers revolutionary potential for testing the fundamentals of quantum mechanics, while at the same time enabling extraordinary new microscopes.

Come see one of most remarkable Canadian nanotechnology researchers discuss the wondrous potential in the fabrication of molecular devices.
