- [nanoPost] Depositing metal coatings on to a range of substrates
These substrates include glass, ceramic, plastic film, and even cloth. We do this by means of specially-synthesised liquids, which are applied as a thin coating on to the substrate.
|
- [nanoPost] IC design
We have a lot of research that spans from micro to nano and the Institute covers the spectrum from IC design right through to technology.
|
- [nanoPost] Deposition and control of thin film thickness to sub-nanometre levels
We also characterise the optical properties and the physical structure of thin films as these are very often different from the corresponding bulk values.
|
- [nanoPost] Thin film materials
Its purpose built facilities house some of the most sophisticated nano fabrication, manipulation and characterisation equipment in the world.
|
- [nanoPost] Piezoelectric thin films
Piezoelectric thin films, AlN and ZnO applied to high frequencies of several gigahertz.
|
- [nanoPost] Optical coatings
The group has experience in optical coatings using vacuum-based methods.
|
- [nanoPost] Synthesis of inorganic nanoparticles with controlled shape
The use of nanomaterials for optics is a rapidly growing field with tremendous potential.
|
- [nanoPost] Conductive inks
Areas of interest are the printing of electronic materials ranging from conductive inks, development of ink precursors...
|
- [nanoPost] Self-healing nanomaterials
With regards to the field of nanotechnology, expertise ranges from the development of novel instrumentation for the analysis of nanoscale structures, through the modification of surfaces and bulk materials, to the development of new materials and applications.
|
- [nanoPost] Anti-Scratch coatings
The company specialize in the development of organic-inorganic nanocomposites using surface-modified nanopore silica.
