A Message from the Director
Welcome to the Center for Nanophysics and Advanced Materials web site. The Center is a new and dynamic organization devoted to supporting research in condensed
matter physics, nano-physics, as well as the investi-gation of advanced materials.
CNAM brings together 17 physics faculty members in both experiment and theory, and a host of important central facilities to address cutting-edge research problems. The pages of this web site are intended to give you a brief introduction to our exciting research program.
