- The Colorado Shared Instrumentation in Nanofabrication and Characterization (COSINC) facility welcomes applications for a highly motivated and collaborative Senior Professional Research Assistant to be part of a cross-functional team to assist
- Thursday, Oct. 10. 9 a.m.-3 p.m. (MT), Jennie Smoly Caruthers Biotechnology Building, Room E225 COSINC is introducing our new Xenocs Xeuss 3.0 instrument with a small angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) workshop. We will present an overview
- Researchers at CU «Ƶ will soon begin work on what they’re calling the “quantum machine shop” of the 21st century. The U.S. National Science Foundation today announced a $20 million grant to CU «Ƶ to launch a facility known as the National Quantum Nanofab (NQN). In this facility, Colorado researchers and quantum specialists from around the country will be able to design and build incredibly small devices that tap into the world of atoms and photons—the tiny packets of energy that make up light. Principal Investigator Scott Diddams, professor in the Department of Electrical, Computer and Energy Engineering, alongside a team of physicists and engineers, will lead the realization of this maker space. Diddams said it will help transform discoveries from the quantum world into technologies and devices that can have greater impact on society, and shore up a rapidly growing sector of Colorado’s economy.
- NSF funds new electron beam lithography system for quantum engineering, nanofabrication on «Ƶ campusA state-of-the-art instrument coming soon to CU «Ƶ will improve research around quantum engineering and may eventually prove to be a game-changer for interdisciplinary materials and device research in the Rocky Mountain region.
- A number of researchers at CU «Ƶ are celebrating the passage of the CHIPS and Science Act by Congress.
- The Colorado Shared Instrumentation in Nanofabrication and Characterization (COSINC) facility will host a day-long workshop and training session on Material 3D-Nanofabrication and Characterization from 8 a.m.- 5 p.m. on Aug. 9 on CU «Ƶ’s Campus in Discovery Learning Center room 1B70.
- With the goal of enhancing operations within core and shared instrumentation facilities on the CU «Ƶ campus, the 2022 Core Facility Assistance Grant Program has awarded 10 new grants totaling $107K to faculty projects spanning multiple departments and disciplines.
- The two-day limited participation hands-on workshop in the area of material 3D nanofabrication and characterization was highly appreciated by our 13 participants from diverse academic and technical backgrounds. They were mostly graduate students
- “Low Energy Ion Scattering Spectroscopy (LEIS) can provide the elemental composition of the outermost atomic layer of a material by probing it with a 1 – 10 keV beam of noble gas ions. There isn’t another way to get this kind of information
- The Colorado Shared Instrumentation in Nanofabrication and Characterization (COSINC) facility will host a two-day workshop and training session on Material 3D-Nanofabrication and Characterization from 8 a.m.- 5 p.m. April 21 and 22 on the CU «Ƶ campus.
