Nanotechnology Research – Universities

The vision of CDNA is exploring fundamental aspects of DNA as a programmable tool for directing the assembly of molecules and materials into nanoarchitectures and functional structures.

iNANOschool is a graduate school in nanoscience and nanotechnology at the University of Aarhus and Aalborg University.

Nanomaterials- polymers, self-assembly, thin films. Synthesis and analysis.

CEN houses 7 new microscopes built by FEI ranging from a standard SEM instrument to two highly specialized Titan TEMs. The new unit represents an exciting opportunity that will allow DTU and Denmark to be at the forefront of research utilizing all forms of electron microscopy and will be available for use by both in-house and external users.

The main objective of the Danish National Research Foundation Center for Individual Nanoparticle Functionality (CINF) at DTU is to explore and understand the fundamental relations between surface morphology and reactivity on the nanometer scale.

Nano DTU covers the full spectrum from basic research to applications. Nano DTU is organized in nine reseach themes, spanding from nanobio-technology to energy technology.

DANCHIP is a national facility for producing components based on micro- and nanostructured materials for the use in research and industrial products.

MIC is the department for micro- and nanotechnology at the Technical University of Denmark.MIC's mission is to: educate scientists and engineers, conduct research and development in micro and nanotechnology, and transfer new technologies to Danish industry, through joint programmes.

The Nanointegration group combines microcantilever systems with nanofabrication techniques in order to 'expand the nano toolbox'. They both develop tools to directly interact with the nanocomponents - tiny grippers for one-by-one manipulation - but also methods for assembling many such structures in parallel... which are necessary to ever manufacture nanosystem devices.
