Nanotechnology Research – Universities

CARAMEL Consortium: CARbon Allotropes for MicroELectronics. The purpose of this consortium is to study and develop nanodevices based on carbon nanotubes.

Large efforts, experimental as well as theoretical, are directed at materials, devices and subsystems for future micro/nanoelectronics in the fields of microwave electronics, quantum devices, photonics, micro- and nanosystems, superconducting devices and circuits and molecular electronics just to mention a few.

This research program is a collective effort of research groups with different disciplinary competencies. The major goal of the program is the development of new, innovative tools, technologies and methodologies for chemical synthesis, analysis and biochemical diagnostics, performed in nanolitre to femtolitre domains.

Research on quantum Josephson circuits, nanostructured proteins and spintronics.

The Nanometer Structure Consortium is the host to several national and international research programs in the area of nanoscience.

Various research projects and groups dealing with nanoscience and nanotechnologies.
