Congratulations to group members Ifan Williams and Matthew Hunt on winning the best poster prize at Magnetism 2016. The work demonstrates how we are able to fabricate 3D magnetic nanostructures with feature sizes of approximately 500nm. We expect further work to reduce this to approximately 200nm.
January 2016
Very pleased to announce that our new two-photon lithography system has been installed within our lab and is now operational. The system is capable of fabricating 3D nanostructures down to a feature size of 200nm. The system has been installed within a dedicated class 1000 cleanroom situated within our laboratory. We will be using the system intensively in order to manufacture 3D magnetic nanowires and structures.
December 2015
Nanoscribe are here to install the new two-photon lithography system. Acceptance test has been completed and we have written our first 3D nanostructures shown above. The picture shows a 3D woodpile structure with feature size <200nm.
