Scotland's James Watt Nanofabrication Centre opens, eyeing commercial development
Abstract:
The new James Watt Nanofabrication Centre (JWNC) at Glasgow University, Scotland, nestled over and into one of Lord Kelvin's original laboratories, boasts an impressive array of equipment and capabilities: large area, high resolution, immensely versatile e-beam Vistec VB6, metal and dielectric sputtering using RF and DC magnetrons; mask aligning (with double sided capability); flip-chip bonding; nano-scale embossing; high resolution SEM and ATM; atomic force microscopy; surface profilometry; plasma deposition; and reactive ion etching. Metal-oxide semiconductor field-effect transistor technology is an important area of expertise.
