Nanotechnology Research – Universities

The NanoScience and Technology Center Linz (NSTL) is an Initiative of the Johannes Kepler University Linz together with non-university institutes.

The center provides a state-of-the art environment for teaching the fundamental techniques used to fabricate new semiconductor devices. The main goal of the research and development activities is the transfer of innovative ideas from basic science to device concepts.

Supramolecular chemistry involving: Nanoglycobiology, Nano-Biotechnology, Nanostructures.

The group's research program is devoted to the investigation of the physical concepts of a subwavelength light technology (Nano-Optics), mainly based on surface plasmon excitations in metal nanostructures.

The central topics of research at the Center are molecular nanotechnology, nanobiotechnology and biomimetics, focussing on two-dimensional protein crystals.

Runs the Solid State Spectroscopy research group at the University of Vienna.
