Nanovation

Dr. Saujan Sivaram, a recent graduate of the Filler Lab, joins the podcast to talk about semiconductor nanowires. We chat about how these rod-like materials are made, the idea of “functional encoding,” and the challenges that lie ahead. We finish with a discussion of the companies trying (really really hard) to translate nanowires into commercial products. Come for the nano, stay to learn how to pronounce Saujan’s name.Show details: • Hosted and edited by Michael Filler (@michaelfiller) • Recorded on March 4, 2016 • Show notes are available at http://www.fillerlab.com/nanovation/archive/6 • Submit feedback at http://www.fillerlab.com/nanovation/feedback
