Smalley Institute at Rice University
We lead the world in solving humanity’s most pressing problems through the application of nanotech With their discovery of buckyballs in 1985, Richard E.
Smalley (1943–2005), Robert F. Curl (b. 1933), and Harold W. Kroto (b. 1939) furthered progress to the long-held objective of molecular-scale electronics and other nanotechnologies. Molecular-scale electronics, or molecular electronics, is the ongoing effort to use individual molecules to perform functions in electronic circuitry.
