Structure of a
Molecular-Scale Circuit Component
Through research, the circuits that make electronic devices work
have become smaller and more efficient, leading to better products.
At Brookhaven Lab, scientists are engaging in studies and
experiments aimed at taking this miniaturization trend to the
extreme. |
