Nanotechnology Research – Laboratories

Research on dynamics and self organization covers nanobio complexity.

A group of physicists, biologists, chemists and engineers conceiving inventing and utilizing optical microscopes with resolution at the nanometer scale to advance life sciences.

Dealing with chemical and physical aspects of nanoscience and nanotechnology.

Research efforts in the Department are centered on nanometer-scale science and technology, primarily focussing on solid state phenomena that are determined by small dimensions and interfaces.

Four departments: Biomaterials, Colloid Chemistry, Interfaces as well as Theory and Bio-Systems. Current research topics are polymeric films, membranes, micro- capsules, organic and inorganic nano- structures, biomineralization, nanoreactors or molecular motors.

Experimental and theoretical research carried out at the Max Planck Institute of Microstructure Physics is primarily focussed on solid state phenomena that are determined by small dimensions and surfaces and interfaces. The investigations concentrate on establishing relations between the magnetic, electronic, optical, and mechanical properties of solids and their microstructure. Thin films and surfaces are investigated as well as nanocrystalline materials, phase boundaries and defects in bulk crystals.

metaFAB is a component node of the UK Department of Trade & Industry MicroNanoTechnology Network. metaFAB employs engineering tools at the molecular, nano- and micro-scale to differentiate products through a paradigm shift in performance.

The lab research activity is devoted to the synthesis and characterization of nanostructured films and surfaces, clusters and nanostructures.

Micronova is a center for the design, development and fabrication of micro- and nanosystems. Micronova is run jointly by the VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland and Helsinki University of Technology (TKK).

A research consortium whose goal is to develop the next class of semiconductor materials and devices. The consortium includes Purdue University, the University of Illinois, Pennsylvania State University, the University of Michigan, Argonne National Laboratory, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory.

A major French regional nanotech research center in Grenoble.

ISN's charge is to pursue a long-range vision for how technology can make soldiers less vulnerable to enemy and environmental threats. The ultimate goal is to create a 21st century battlesuit that combines high-tech capabilities with light weight and comfort.

The central goals of the NCI funded MIT-Harvard CCNE are to rapidly translate recent advances in nanotechnology for use in the diagnosis and treatment of cancer, and to develop the next generation of nanomaterials for this purpose.

Performs broadly-based research and development in nanotechnology. A unique strength of the group's technical efforts is the focus on systems engineering starting at the molecular scale.

As part of Lippo Medical and Health Program, that includes the Faculty of Medicine Pelita Harapan University, Siloam Hospitals and the Mochtar Riady Comprehensive Cancer Center (MRCCC), the Mochtar Riady Institute for Nanotechnology (MRIN) was established in 2006 to support cancer research in Indonesia using both genomic and proteomic approaches.

Conducts nanotechnology research in areas that support the comapny's business and their Seamless Mobility vision.

Nanotechnology at the Hungarian Academy of Sciences

MyFab is a cooperative network of three world-class cleanrooms excelling in micro and nano fabrication. The network offers an extremely wide platform for both academic and commercial interests in Sweden, Europe and around the world.
