TESTIMONIALS
“Using the capabilities available at the Nanofab has allowed us to screen new and novel chemical precursors on a state-of-the-art tool which can be quickly translated to our customers.
Having this capability at Penn State has enabled Air Products and Chemicals to run programs which we might not otherwise have run, and has resulted in at least one material which has been successfully transferred to a customer.
I have found the Nanofab staff to be very knowledgeable, professional, and helpful.
This project has been productive for Air Products and we hope to continue our relationship with the Nanofab.”

"TRS would not have been able to develop micromachined ultrasound transducers without access to the facilities and specialized equipment at the Penn State Nanofab. The expertise of the staff at Penn State in processing exotic materials enabled the early success needed in the project to attract the interest of the medical device community. The fact that the Nanofab is a user facility allowed TRS personnel to develop propriety processes for a specific product and to protect the resulting intellectual property through non-disclosure agreements.
Penn State’s participation in the NNIN allowed us to maintain our development schedule when critical pieces of equipment had to be repaired. We were able to get the same process done at the Cornell Nanofab.
Because of the Penn State Nanofab and the NNIN, TRS was able to develop a highly innovative new technology that will allow our company to grow, create jobs in our region, and improve public health."
