Nanomanufacturing Centers

Nanomanufacturing Centers can provide access to facilities with a range of equipment and support for varying fees or barter agreements.

NSF Nanoscale Science and Engineering Centers

• Center for Hierarchical Manufacturing
  The CHM's facilities include three clean rooms and two shared experimental facilities at the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Facility and the W.M. Keck Nanostructures Laboratory. The Conte Nanotechnology Cleanroom Lab can accommodate metalization, deposition and ectching, lithography, wet chemistry, and metrology.
  
  
• Center for High Rate Nanomanufacturing
  The CHN provides access to facilities at Northeastern's George J. Kostas Nanotechnology and Manufacturing Research Center; the University of New Hampshire’s organic synthesis labs, and the University of Massachusetts Lowell’s materials characterization labs at their Center for Nanomanufacturing Research. The labs provide a comprehensive collection of state-of-the-art analytical equipment and a full compliment of rheological, thermal, and mechanical characterization equipment.
  
  
• Center for Scalable and Integrated Nanomanufacturing
  SINAM partners with over 30 academic and non-academic institutions to meet the challenges of sub-20 nm lithography and fabrication of 3D complex nanostructures.
  
  
• Center for Nanoscale Chemical-Electrical-Mechanical Manufacturing Systems
  The Nano-CEMMS provides a network of facilities through their participating institutions, including eight laboratories at the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign; the Microfluidics Foundary at Stanford; a fabrication facility at CalTech; and the Center for Advanced Materials and Smart Structures at North Carolina Agricultural and Technical University.

Academic Centers

• Nano Fab, University of Texas at Arlington
  The Research and Teaching Facilities at the Nano Fab include a 10,000 sq. ft. clean room as well as measurement laboratories.
  

Department of Energy

• Center for Integrated Nanotechnologies, Sandia/Los Alamos National Laboratories
  CINT provides open access to tools and expertise for research and development projects through their Core (Albequerque) and Gateway (Sandia and Los Alamos) Facilities which house a comprehensive suite of synthesis, characterization, and device integration tools.
  
  
• The Molecular Foundry, Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory
  Under four cross-cutting research themes, the Molecular Foundry hosts six different user facilities, among them a Nanofabrication facility with expertise in lithography and pattern transfer and thin film processing.
