Abstract:

"Nanotechnology" will solve every materials, electronics and biology problem we have, according to some of the latest techno-hype. Or destroy the world with self-replicating nano-robots, predicts popular fiction. We will take a look at what is real, what is not real, and what may never be real in this exciting field of nanoscale control over atoms and molecules. Particular emphasis will be given to nanoscale electronics, where Hewlett-Packard Labs has a strong effort in nanoelectronic devices, architectures, and manufacturing.

Biography:

Duncan Stewart is a research physicist at Hewlett-Packard Laboratories in the Quantum Science Research group. He received a B.A.Sc. in Engineering Physics from the University of Toronto in 1992 and a Ph.D. in Applied Physics from Stanford University in 1999, where he studied nanoscale electron transport.

He joined HP Labs in 1999, and has since worked extensively on nanoscale hybrid organic/inorganic devices, with efforts in both basic science and applied nanotechnologies.Basic science efforts focus on the challenging physical and chemical characterization of nanoscale interfaces, particularly organic/inorganic structures. Nanotechnology contributions include molecular-scale electronic switching, demonstrations of electronically addressed nano-crossbar memory at world-record densities, and the first demonstrations of nano-crossbar logic circuits with transistor-like functionality.

Stewart has published more than 20 reviewed scientific papers and authored more than 20 patents in the area of nanoscale electronics and materials.
