Nanoscience and nanotechnology
How can we create advanced materials for future technologies?
Off
Elucidating material properties at the molecular and atomic scale allows us to design novel materials and create new nanoscale devices.
Our understanding is being translated into solar energy harvesting technologies, photonics and semiconductor quantum devices for ultra-secure communication as well as new polymers and other compounds for industry and healthcare.
Expertise
We have a total of £19 million in grant income in this area. This success is mediated by world-class facilities and an interconnected network of interdisciplinary institutes and centres including:
