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.
