Applied Research
Developing and testing new nanomaterials, structures and surfaces.
Our research aims to develop an understanding in nanostructure science and engineering, and to develop novel nanostructured materials for applications in electronics and optics industries.
The high-accuracy capabilities of our Ion Beam Analysis Research Laboratory and experienced team allow us to rearrange the atomic composition of the materials in the near-surface region thus completely altering the electrical, optical and chemical properties of the materials.
