DTU Nanolab Information

Mission & Vision DTU Nanolab is the National Centre for Nanofabrication and Characterization in Denmark. The center is an open access research infrastructure facility owned by and located at the Technical University of Denmark (DTU). The 100 staff members include engineers, technicians as well as professors and Ph.D. students. Link to staff Our Mission is threefold: • To push the boundaries of micro/nano fabrication and electron beam based characterization. •To provide Denmark with state-of-the-art infrastructure, technology and education within micro- and nanofabrication and nanocharacterization. •To enable Danish industry to exploit the existing and future benefits of nanotechnology. Open Access Pending proper training and instructions DTU Nanolab is open to all academic and commercial entities either through partnership or on a pay per use basis. We operate and maintain advanced processing equipment within 1350 m2 cleanroom facilities. Our suite of 9 advanced electron microscopes allows in-situ study of chemical reactions with atomic resolution as well as characterization of composition and nanocrystalline structure of materials. Broad Network Our customer base reaches from small start-up to multinational companies. We host users and collaborate with most of the Danish and a number of foreign universities. Concerning operation of the facility, user safety, tool access and booking systems as well as user training we have close exchange of best practice with our colleagues in the Nordic Countries (NTNU, Chalmers, ALTO,KTH) as well as other universities facilities such as MIT, Stanford, Tyndall Labs, University of Twente and the Australian National Fabrication Facility (ANFF).
