Centre for Microelectronics and Nanotechnology
The Centre for Microelectronics and Nanotechnology is a modern research and educational facility comprising a range of specialized laboratories and teaching spaces designed to support both scientific research and advanced student training.
Research Laboratories
The Centre includes the following state-of-the-art laboratories:
- Cryogenic Complex – dedicated to low-temperature research
- Technological Complex – focused on MBE (Molecular Beam Epitaxy) quality and chemical composition control
- Laboratory of Photolithography and Electron Lithography – supporting micro- and nanofabrication processes
- Laboratory of Computer-Aided Technological Measurements – designed for student training in measurement techniques and metrology
- Student Laboratory for Conduction Phenomena in Semiconductors
- Student Laboratory for Optical Phenomena in Semiconductors
- Laboratory of Low-Temperature Luminescence – for advanced optical and materials science studies
- Laboratory of Magnetic Transport in Nanostructures – supporting research in nanomagnetism
Educational and Didactic Facilities
The Centre also includes a comprehensive infrastructure for teaching and academic events:
- Two lecture halls, each accommodating up to 150 participants, equipped with full audiovisual capabilities
- Eight teaching classrooms
- A seminar room with a capacity of 50 participants
- Three student laboratories, including:
- Laboratory for Computer-Aided Technology Measurement Systems
- Laboratory for Conduction Phenomena in Semiconductor Structures
- Laboratory for Optical Phenomena in Semiconductors
Technological and Educational Integration
The implementation of the Centre’s infrastructure enables students to engage directly with state-of-the-art technological and research equipment, effectively bridging the gap between theoretical instruction and practical application.
A key component of the Centre is the development of an internal computer network designed to monitor technological processes in real time. These processes can be observed live in lecture halls and training rooms, recorded for future reference, and streamed online—enhancing both accessibility and interactivity in the learning environment. The integration of augmented reality (AR) further enriches the educational experience, offering immersive and dynamic visualizations of complex phenomena.
As part of its digital infrastructure, the Centre will establish a comprehensive Virtual Learning Environment (VLE), fully integrated with a Managed Information System (MIS). This e-learning platform will support contemporary teaching methodologies, streamline information management, and facilitate seamless coordination between research and educational activities.
