What are Some Key Facilities in Nanotechnology Laboratories?
Nanotechnology laboratories are equipped with a range of advanced instruments. Common facilities include:
- Clean Rooms: Essential for maintaining a contaminant-free environment. - Microscopy Tools: Such as Scanning Electron Microscopes (SEM) and Atomic Force Microscopes (AFM) for imaging at the nanoscale. - Synthesis Equipment: For creating nanoparticles and nanostructures, including chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and molecular beam epitaxy (MBE) systems. - Characterization Tools: For analyzing the properties of nanomaterials, including X-ray diffraction (XRD) and spectroscopy tools.
