Die Initiative geht von den Physik-Professoren Dario Anselmetti (Experimentelle Biophysik und Angewandte Nanowissenschaften), Armin Gölzhäuser (Physik supramolekularer Systeme), Ulrich Heinzmann (Molekül-und Oberflächenphysik), Günter Reiss (Dünne Schichten und Nanostrukturen) und Markus Sauer (Angewandte Laserphysik und Spektroskopie) aus. Nanowissenschaften und Biophysik gehören zu modernen, IT-relevanten Forschungsfeldern, in denen klassische Disziplingrenzen mehr und mehr überwunden werden müssen. Im BINAS ist deshalb eine enge interdisziplinäre Zusammenarbeit mit Wissenschaftlern aus der Biologie, der Chemie und aus der Technischen Fakultät der Universität Bielefeld geplant.Sun, 26 Aug 2007 16:28:35 GMThttp://www.cu.uni-siegen.deThe research mission of the institute is to explore how chemical processes work on a microscopic scale, to develop novel methods and systems for micro and nanochemistry, and to apply this knowledge to develop novel intelligent microsystem devices, e.g. for lab-on-chip technology. The goal of the institute is to focus expertise in the fields of micro and nanochemistry and microsystem technology which is dispersed at the University among different research groups in the Science and Engineering departments. In the institute, groups work together in a stimulating environment, sharing their knowhow, facilities, and creativity. A prominent activity of Cµ is currently to merge microchemistry and microelectronics. In this context, major research efforts are being made to design, construct and investigate components and integrated systems for the lab on microchip technology. The final goal is to install a full-fledged chemical laboratory on a microchip.Sun, 26 Aug 2007 17:03:27 GMThttp://www.nanocenter.ruhr-uni-bochum.de/center_en.htmlThe "Center of Nanostructures and Nanomaterials" (NanoCenter) was established at the Ruhr-Universität Bochum in 2002 as a platform to encourage interdisciplinary work involving inorganic materials with characteristic dimensions in the sub-micrometer range.Mon, 27 Aug 2007 20:21:08 GMThttp://www.cni-juelich.de/aboutOn the eve of the transition from microelectronics to nanoelectronics, the traditional routes of down-scaling along the roadmap will no longer guarantee a long-term success. There is a general agreement, that the present performance enhancement of CMOS (microprozessor) technology by a continuous size reduction will run into serious limitations, probably within the next 15 to 20 years. Physical, technological, and economical barriers are accumulating along the conventional development path. We are experiencing a change of paradigm. On grounds of an exploratory and fundamental research, we see our mission and objective to provide new - sometimes competing - concepts and solutions on long-term perspective, in interaction with the industry. The CNI is a center of excellence for nanoelectronics at the Research Center Juelich and provides an excellent basis for future developments of nanoelectronics and IT. To identify technology drivers the research areas cover quantum-electronic, ...Sun, 26 Aug 2007 16:53:35 GMThttp://www.dwi.rwth-aachen.deThe DWI is a modern research facility with a strong focus on state-of-the-art materials. DWI is linked to the Aachen University via the Chair of Textile Chemistry and Macromolecular Chemistry (TexMC) as part of the Institute of Technical and Macromolecular Chemistry (ITMC) of the Aachen UniversitySun, 26 Aug 2007 20:51:11 GMThttp://www.er-c.org/The Ernst Ruska-Centre (ER-C) for Microscopy and Spectroscopy with Electrons is a national user facility open to universities, research institutions and industry research laboratories. The operation of the ER-C is based on the guiding principle, that each user is accompanied by experienced scientists and technical support staff. The Ernst Ruska-Centre is conjointly run by two institutions, the Institute of Microstructure Research of the Research Centre Jülich and the Central Facility for Electron Microscopy of RWTH Aachen University. The ER-C is located at the Research Centre in JülichSun, 26 Aug 2007 20:55:04 GMThttp://www.uni-greifswald.de/~pharma/technoenglisch.html-Investigations of gastrointestinal transport of solid dosage forms (Magnetic Marker Monitoring) -Development of magnetic methods and materials as an alternative to radioactive materials in medicinal diagnostics (Magnetic Nanoparticles) -New formulations for extended release solid dosage forms -Production and characterisation of Liposomes, Micro- and Nanoparticles. -Antimicrobial efficacy of physical and chemical agents and its combinations, gentle sterilisation of irritable goods, special field: enzyme biosensorsThu, 26 Apr 2007 20:55:30 GMThttp://www.nanoscience.descanning probe methods (SPM),scanning tunneling microscopy (STM), atomic force microscopy (AFM), magnetic force microscopy (MFM) and other scanning probe methods (SXM)Thu, 12 Apr 2007 07:09:29 GMThttp://www.tu-darmstadt.declusters of defined size and composition, molecular beam experiments and surface chemistrySun, 08 Apr 2007 20:46:07 GMThttp://www.tu-darmstadt.de/fb/ms/fg/ca/nanofilms, nanopores, nanowiresSun, 08 Apr 2007 21:03:52 GMT
