As part of the Government of the Province of Alberta's Nano Strategy, ACAMP is dedicated to building a world class capability that will grow to make Alberta a world-leading locale for the assembly and packaging of Micro-Nano-Technologies (MNT) enabled devices and development of new commercial products and industrial applications.
ArboraNano is the new Canadian Forest NanoProducts Network made possible through the Government of Canada's Business-led Networks of Centres of Excellence program, FPInnovations and NanoQuebec. ArboraNano has brought together researchers from vastly different industries to research and develop products that will be based on a plant-derived nanomaterial - NanoCrystalline Cellulose (NCC).
CIFAR selects research areas that tackle fundamental questions challenging our understanding of the natural world and of human society. Its Nanoelectronics program focuses both on fundamental science of how materials behave at the nanometer scale, and engineering issues such as creating new nanomaterials used for both research and applications.
CNBA is a nanotechnology association and facilitator. Its dual mission is to establish a Canadian National Nanotechnology Initiative including the creation of commercially-oriented nanotech hubs, the promotion of nanotechnology in Canada, and the promotion of Canadian nanotechnology capabilities internationally, and to develop major nanotechnology initiatives across the globe.
A non-profit research organization that brings together the various elements, across international boundaries, which are required for successfully transitioning exciting micro-nano technologies into aerospace systems.
This concentration allows students to study atoms and molecules used to create computer chips and other devices that are the size of a few nanometres - thousands of times smaller than current technology permits. Such discoveries will be useful in a number of fields, including aerospace, medicine, and electronics.
At Carleton, you will examine nanoscience through the disciplines of physical chemistry and electrical engineering to understand the physical, chemical and electronic characteristics of matter in this size regime. The combination of these two areas of study will equip you to fully understand nanoscience in photonic, electronic, energy and communication technologies. The focus of the program will be on materials - their use in electronic devices, their scalability and control of their properties.
CMC Microsystems provides microsystems researchers with industry-calibre design resources, access to state-of-the-art prototyping technologies, tools for test and support services to accelerate Canadian competitiveness through nano- and microelectronics.
The group studies the link between structure and mechanical properties in biological systems. They are particularly interested in self-assembled protein filaments like collagen fibrils, intermediate filaments and myosin thick filaments.
Investigation of semiconductors and devices for optoelectronic applications including photovoltaic energy conversion and optical communications. Development of thin film transistors for electronic displays and imaging systems.
The experimental research projects in the group address the mechanical behavior of very small systems.
The focus of the research program is to apply the recently developed tools, techniques and materials to the emerging field of Nanoelectronics.
As part of Alberta Innovates - Technology Futures, nanoAlberta is the single most dedicated authority on nanotechnology research, development and commercialization activities in the province.
A public-private partnership, NanoMEMS Edmonton is dedicated to fostering the development and growth of micro - and nano-based commercial enterprise across the region.
The Research center NanoQAM is a grouping of five laboratories in nanotechnologies of the Université du Québec à Montréal which offer their knowledge and expertise in nanomanufacturing using polymers, development of high-energy nanomaterials, renewable energies, nanoimaging, green chemistry as well as the development of biological membranes, biomaterials and biosensors. NanoQAM allows access to its infrastructures and scientific equipment, either for industries and other academic institutions.
