Wiki for UiB's NanoStructures Laboratory.

UiB's NanoStructures laboratory is equipped with modern thin-film processing, lithography equipment as well as several imaging tools. The lab is built around an electron-beam lithography tool (Raith e-Line) which can be used to pattern resist thin-films with minimal structure sizes of the order of 10 nanometer. The resist layers can be used to transfer the pattern into other thin-films that are either deposited using an electron-beam evaporator (Temescal FC-2000) or a spin-coater. For the pattern transfer a reactive-ion etcher (RIE, Plasmatherm 790+) is available as well as a wet-bench fumehood to perform wet-etch and lift-off processes. An improvised UV-exposure setup is available for crude patterning.

In addition we have several imaging and analysis tools like Optical Microscopes, an AFM, a Thin Film measurements system and a Contact Angle measurement system.

We use this WikiMedia site for documentation of all equipment, facilities and standard operating procedures of the laboratory. As a registered user of the laboratory you will receive permission to log into this site, which will allow you to contribute to the documentation and give information on the processes particular to your project.

Equipment and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)

Further Information

There is a huge amount of information on Micro- and Nanofabrication on the web. Here are just some examples:

  • MIT open course ware on nano processing [1]
  • Resources at Chalmers (Swedish Nano-processing lab)[2]
  • Useful recipes at Brigham Young University [3]
  • Wikibook on Microtechnology [4]
