The Roll-to-roll Nanotechnology Facility is an example of a RSL Nanotechnology Initiative that is currently forming in Massachusetts with a broad focus on Micro/Nanotechnology Devices and Systems. Roll-to-roll (R2R) manufacturing processes make it possible to economically print electronic devices and other technology products at meters-per-minute rates on inexpensive plastic film, paper, or foil, and to achieve feature dimensions as small as a few nanometers over areas encompassing billions of identical devices.
