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.

Equipment and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs)

  • Nanogroup lab-spaces: Clean room and chemical lab-spaces as well as characterisation tools
    • Primary staff: Martin Greve & Sabrina Eder
    • Access: to access the Nanogroup lab-spaces one requires an introduction and basic training by UiB personnel.

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]
