Prof. Mildred Dresselhaus (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, USA) - Professor Dresselhaus and her group have extensively employed advanced electron microscopy and Raman micro spectroscopy to nanomaterials, in particular carbon nanostructures to relate their structure to their electronic properties. As such she has defined some of the basic concepts of using well-defined nanostructures in electronic devices to achieve a specific functional behavior which is key for their use in technological applications.
