WELCOME TO THE PENN STATE UNIVERSITY Nanofabrication Facility

THE PENN STATE SITE OF THE NATIONAL NANOTECHNOLOGY INFRASTRUCTURE NETWORK (NNIN)

 

The Nanofabrication Facility is moving its entire facility to the new Millennium Science Complex, beginning in December, 2011. Click here to view the estimated move dates and downtime for individual tools .

 

 

OPEN ACCESS

The Penn State Nanofab provides users with 24/7 open-access to facilities that enable fabrication

of a wide range of devices and characterization to support fundamental and applied research in diverse fields spanning electronics to medicine. 

 

ON-SITE OR REMOTE SERVICES

Academic and industry users can perform research on-site using facility equipment, training, and staff support.   

 

The technical staff can also provide “remote services” in which they do your research for you.

NNIN

As a member of the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network (NNIN), Penn State provides technical expertise in materials and chemical technologies at the molecular scale with unique strengths that include surface chemistry, self-assembly, and the fabrication and processing of complex oxide materials. 

 

NNIN, supported by the National Science Foundation, offers a geographically dispersed network of user facilities to enable rapid advancements in science, engineering, and technology at the nanoscale.  The Network provides access to technological expertise and nanotechnology instrumentation that would otherwise be out of reach for many researchers in industry and academia.
