Description

Albanova Nanolab is the key resource for academic and commercial nanoscale R&D in the Stockholm area. With close to 80 unique users in 2020, a super-efficient economic model and flexible infrastructure, it offers broad-spectrum, affordable access to top-level nano-fabrication tools and processes. ANL has a 285 m&sup2 cleanroom and 60 m&sup2 additional laboratories. With focus on direct writing technology, the Albanova Nanolab is a flexible resource for basic research requiring nanofabrication and nanocharacterisation with a wide variety of materials and substrate. ANL is a part of the national network for micro- and nano-fabrication Myfab, and is ideally suited to basic research and high-risk innovation.

Micro- and nanostructure fabrication:

The Nanolab provides access to a complete toolbox for exploring and testing “top down” micro- and nanostructure fabrication. with electron beam lithography, optical lithography and focused ion beam SEM, and most necessary coating and wet and dry etching technique

Characterisation:

Scanning electron microscopy, stylus and optical profilometry and AlbaNova’s focus area of atomic force microscopy (AFM) are used to characterise the dimensional, mechanical and electrical nature of materials at the nanoscale! From materials science to life science, a wide range of samples can be studied in controlled environments, including air, liquid, controlled temperature and humidity
