# overview
Our team aims to develop holistic design approaches across multiple physical domains (electronics, optoelectronics, electrochemistry, and nano-mechanics) and beyond the hierarchical architectures (material, device, and system) of microelectronics for non-conventional computing and sensing nanosystems. Our focus areas are: (1) atomic-scale engineering of functional nanomaterials (including 0D functional molecules, 1D graphene nanoribbons and carbon nanotubes, and 2D layered materials); (2) emerging multi-physical phenomena at the nanoscale and their electronic, optoelectronic, and nano-electro-mechanical system (NEMS) applications; (3) integrated multifunctional nanosystems for next-generation computing and intelligent sensing.
