Facilities
The NNL is equipped with facilities for advanced research in the areas of bottom-up nanofabrication through uniform self-assembly, nano-bioscience, and characterization of nanomaterials and biomaterials, including:
- Anodization, electrodeposition, and electroless deposition workstations
- A chemical vapor deposition system
- A tissue culture incubator
- A UV-visible spectrophotometer
- A BAS electrochemical workstation equips with A.C. impedance module
- A Millipore filtration system
- An electrospinning equipment set
- A cold gas dynamic spraying equipment set
Standard equipment to synthesize and process nanomaterials and biomaterials such as a chemical fume hood, a water purification system, an analytical balance, a micro centrifuge, low temperature storage, water baths, stirring hotplates, a pH meter, ultrasonic cleaners, three low temperature thermostats, a programmable heavy duty muffle furnace, a vacuum, a tube, and two general purpose furnaces
Shared facilities with WPI’s materials community: further information can be found on Materials Characterization Laboratory
