NANOTECH is a Shared Instrumentation Facility of the Wake Forest University research community. Its core mission is to provide access to a broad suite of nationally competitive capabilities in nano-sciences. NANOTECH accomplishes this in a comprehensive way...

​

NANOTECH manages and enables access to two core user facilities

 

1. High resolution imaging and analytical characterization - HRTEM/STEM, STM/AFM, CTEM, XPS, Auger, EDAX, PEELS

2. Cleanroom fabrication facility - class 1000, ISO 6 - with beam and optical lithography, 

​

NANOTECH manages two large multi-PI shared lab spaces

​

3. Quantum Devices Lab: Fast optical techniques - ps to fs time resolution, low temperature transport, qubit 

tomography 

4. Nanomaterials Lab:  synthesis and processing.

​

NANOTECH offers a working curriculum in the nano-sciences with graduate level courses ranging from electron imaging to the foundations of quantum computing.    

​

NANOTECH enables the 'community dynamic' around it by supporting multiple visiting scientists each year, regularly arranging for external speakers and holding residential conferences to bring our community together.  

​

NANOTECH is open to all faculty, staff and students of WFU / Atrium-WFBMC as well as to its world-wide network of collaborators and alumni.

Our guest speaker is Prof. Dr. Vojislav Krstic from the FAU Erlangen. He will speak on "Helical nanostructure: PT-violation and (quantum) cooperative dichroism signatures".  

A Community of Researchers

A COMMUNITY

Gamma ray scintillators, quantum computers, artificial organs, time crystals, lighting devices, thermal-solar collectors, and more. NANOTECH users represent a broad variety of nano-inspired sciences from across the WFU campuses. The cross-pollination of these fields gives NANOTECH its unique atmosphere of excitement and discovery...
