TANMS' research plan follows a top-down strategy where testbed systems-level goals guide three engineering technology research thrusts motivating two fundamental research thrusts.
The research program relies on system level metrics defined by 3
testbed demonstration modules, i.e. a) memory, b) antenna, and c) motor.
These three testbeds rely on similar multiferroic concepts while also
representing electromagnetic devices that maximize this program's impact
on our society. The primary goal is to demonstrate an order of
magnitude increase in the memories operational Efficiency, an order of magnitude reduction in antenna Size, and an order of magnitude increase in nanoscale motor Power output (ESP).

2) Engineering Technology - Thrusts 1 to 3The three engineering technology research thrusts demonstrate
fundamental concepts required in each of the testbed systems. These
three technology thrusts synergistically interact with one another to
investigate different levels of complexity ranging from 1D to 3D and are
applicable to each of the testbed structures.
Read more about thrusts 1-3 here.
3) Fundamental Modeling - Thrusts 4 to 5The two fundamental research thrusts focus on materials development
and theoretical modeling efforts. The goal is to find new multiferroic
materials while supporting the efforts of the engineering technology
thrusts.
