U of Alberta Institute Of Nanotechnology
The National Institute for Nanotechnology (NINT) is a first generation Nano-research facility, the first such facility in Canada. Conceived to be a Center for research and development as well as an incubator facility for industry partners, it is anticipated that this facility will be a catalyst for new fields of technology and will rival similar research facilities in the US and internationally.
The facility is a six-story building located on the U of A Campus. Along with research offices, wet laboratories and clean nano-fab space, the facility features several ultra sensitive electron microscopes (STM’s, TEM,s).
Completed in the summer of 2006 at a construction value of approximately $40M.
