Center of Excellence for Green Nanotechnologies Details
The Center of Excellence for Green Nanotechnologies (CEGN) at University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) undertakes frontier research and development in the areas of nanotechnology and nanoscience for future electronics, photonics, and energy efficient devices. CEGN tackles major issues of scaling, energy, efficiency, speed, and emerging new materials. Researchers in the Center are innovating novel solutions through a number of complementary efforts that minimize power usage and cost without compromising electronic device performance. The approach is based on the integration of photonic devices, magnetic devices, and newly discovered high performance nanomaterials.We currently live in an era where power generation and storage have become the main focus of our daily activities. Recent research and development advances have focused on clean energy extraction which includes solar cells for power generation. These approaches do not produce any greenhouse gases, which can pollute the environment.
