Nanofabrication Facility

We are pleased to announce that our new established Nanofabrication Facility will open its cleanroom in Q1 2017. It then will provide a cleanroom space of 420 sqm of new ISO 7 (class 10000), ISO 6 (class 1000) and with specific areas ISO 5 (class 100) - equipped with all the state of the art nanofabrication facilities.
​In general, the Nanofabrication Facility provides tools to researchers and students to support them in their research. Furthermore, it develops, optimizes and maintains micro- and nanofabrication processes.
