Mark A. Ratner (born December 8, 1942) is an American chemist and professor emeritus at Northwestern University whose work focuses on the interplay between molecular structure and molecular properties.[1] He is widely credited as the "father of molecular-scale electronics" thanks to his groundbreaking work with Arieh Aviram in 1974 that first envisioned how electronic circuit elements might be constructed from single molecules and how these circuits might behave.[2]
