Cambridge, MA 02.2000
Three RLE
graduate research assistants won this year's new $30,000 Lemelson-MIT
Student Team Prize. Michael Lim, Jalal Khan, and Thomas Murphy won the
team prize for their fabrication and design research in integrated optical
devices. Much of this work was conducted in Professor Henry I.
Smith's
NanoStructures Laboratory. All three research assistants are doctoral
candidates in the Department of Electrical Engineering and Computer
Science.
The Lemelson-MIT Program, established in 1994, celebrates inspirational
role models in the fields of science, engineering, medicine,
and entrepreneurship in the hope of encouraging future generations
to follow their examples. RLE's Daniel DiLorenzo, who was
a Harvard-MIT Division
of Health Sciences and Technology graduate research assistant
working with Professor
John L. Wyatt, Jr., won the $30,000 Lemelson-MIT Student
Prize last year.
