2011 NNIN Fellowship: 

Congratulations to Professor Lewis for recieving the 2011 National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network Laboratory Experience for Faculty Award.  This fellowship was awarded by the Lurie Nanofabrication Facility at the University of Michigan-Ann Arbor to support her work in Molecular Electronics.

 
 
Dr. Kim Michelle Lewis is an Assistant Professor of Physics at Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute in Troy, NY. Her research interests include: characterization of hybrid nanostructures (i.e., self-assembled molecules) for memory applications; magnetotransport studies to examine molecular conductivity; and fabrication of multifunctional chemical sensors. Experimental techniques include: conductive atomic force microscopy, scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), electrochemistry STM, cyclic voltammetry, spectroscopy (i.e., UV-VIS, Fluorescence & Infrared), low temperature and high magnetic field measurements, and electron beam lithography.
