Introduction

Welcome to the homepage of NanoLAB, a centre of activities in Nanoscale Science and Engineering within the Department of Engineering Materials at the University of Sheffield. We are dealing with Nanomanipulation in confined spaces (e.g. SEM and TEM), as well as the processing, structuring and characterisation of various nanomaterials

Major projects and Research areas include:

  • Nanorobotics Basic Technology project - Nanorobotics Website
  • NanoFIB network - NanoFIB Website
  • Nanomechanical testing and In-situ TEM
  • Nanopatterning with electrons and ions
  • Nanotomography
  • Nanomanipulation and energy filtered imaging in the SEM
  • ELNES spectroscopy of glasses and nanoprecipitates in glasses
  • Metallic nanowires: multilayer structures, contacts and magnetoresistance
  • Nanoscale reactive multilayers and alloys
