Nanotechnology Research – Directory

The Nanotechnology / Science double degree program aims to provide students with a broad education in disciplines that will underpin the science and technology, in particular nanotechnology.

A large French clean room facility with competences in Micro and Nano electronics.

This platform is aimed at developing key technological capacities that will enable the construction industry to use nanotechnology as a competitive tool.

The Laboratory, currently under construction, aims to strengthen the scientific and technological cooperation between Portugal and Spain in the areas of nanotechnologies and nanosciences.

The Laboratory, a fully-owned unit of the Centre National de la Recherche Scientifique (CNRS), carries out its research activities within the general context of the nanosciences, at the cross-roads of quantum optics and electronics, of physics, chemistry and biology, of materials science and device physics.

This Micro and Nanotechnology Masters course is an opportunity for an engineering or a physical sciences graduate to enter an interdisciplinary research or commercial R&D career in MNT.

Research, development, and consulting are the main tasks of the LZH.The close cooperation between production engineers, material scientists, and physicists makes it possible that interdisciplinary solutions are found in all fields of laser applications, including nanotechnology.

The laboratory merges and coordinates Centres of Excellence in the basic research related to the development of micro and nano-devices and sensors for genomics and post-genomics.

(Spanish/English language website) ReLANS provides a discussion forum and act as a source for information exchange about the issues related to the process of nanotechnology development in Latin America.

Conducts nanotechnology research in various areas and has a number of nanotechnology transfer opportunities.

Conducts nanscience and nanotechnology research in various areas such as nanosensors and nanomaterials.

Lehigh's SEM courses were founded by Joe Goldstein in 1970. More than three decades later, the Lehigh Microscopy School is widely recognized as the largest and best in the world.

The Lehigh Nanotech Network maintains a strong, connected nanotechnology cluster in an opportunity-rich networking environment to: Advance nanotechnology business, partnerships, and workforce development; Connect academic research with business drivers for commercialization; Promote visibility and alignment of the network with government initiatives and policies; Facilitate inclusion of socioeconomics, arts, and education in nanotechnology pursuits; Establish a nanotechnology identity for the membership.

The centers mission is to identify, promote and engage in strategic areas of research and education in advanced materials and nanotechnology that meet the needs of industry, government and students.

The main objective of this group is the basic study of the internal structure and the corresponding micromechanical behaviour of biological materials.

The institute is part of the Leibniz Institute for Solid State and Materials Research.

Chemical nanotechnology that has been highly developed by the INM represents a new dimension in nanoscience, which was dominated by physics for a very long time.

The Leibniz Institute for Surface Modification carries out basic and applied research on physical and chemical mechanisms which are important at fabrication and modification of isolating, metallic, semi-conducting and polymeric surface layers. Low-energetic ions, electrons, plasma as well as VUV and UV photons are employed.

The researchers at the IPF work towards understanding the effects of interfaces and the utilization of interface design in material development, in which nanotechnological aspects as well as interfaces to biosystems are of great importance.

The two main research lines within this research program are: models and paradigms for molecular computing, and design of laboratory experiments testing models for molecular computing.

The Kamerlingh Onnes Laboratory has 6 research groups that deal with Atomic and Molecular Conductors, Interface Physics, Magnetic and Superconducting Materials, Quantum Physics of Nanostructured Materials, Quantum Physics and Applications at Ultra Low Temperatures, Granular & Disordered Media, and Physics of Surfaces and Materials.

A joint enterprise with Imperial College London, the London Centre for Nanotechnology (LCN) has been designed to act as a focus for current interdisciplinary nanoscale materials and device research.

Regulating Nanotechnologies in the EU and US is a collaborative research project involving researchers from LSE, Chatham House, Environmental Law Institute and The Project on Emerging Nanotechnologies at the Woodrow Wilson International Center for Scholars. Its goal is to investigate the regulatory challenges posed by nanotechnologies and to assess the effectiveness of existing approaches on both sides of the Atlantic.

Conducts research in nanomaterials.

Research in the area of physics and chemistry of nanoscale structures built from chemically generated nanoparticles.
