The emerging fields of nanoscience and nanoengineering are leading to unprecedented understanding and control over the fundamental building blocks of all physical things. This is likely to change the way almost everything—from vaccines to computers to automobile tires to objects not yet imagined—is designed and made. It is anticipated that a new world of industrial products valued at $1trillion/yr and, at least, 2 million nanotech workers would emerge in 10-15yrs. In order to be part of this exciting ‘Nano world’, CAMD has established nanofabrication facility, taking advantage of the well established infrastructure for microfabrication and X-ray absorption spectroscopy. The core competency of the ‘nanofabrication’ research group is to synthesize variety of nanoparticles, characterize them using X-ray absorption spectroscopy and utilize them to fabricate devices for biomedical applications. A wet chemical laboratory was commissioned to synthesize metallic mono, bi and core-shell metallic/polymer nanoparticles using techniques such as reverse micelle, sonochemical and surfactant mediated classical reduction. The facility utilizes in-house X-ray absorption spectroscopic techniques for characterization of nanoparticles. EXAFS ( X-ray Absorption Fine Structure ) and XANES ( X-ray Absorption Near Edge Structure ) are unique tools and are being used to determine electronic and geometric structures of metallic nanosystems, where the absence of long range order makes standard techniques such as X-Ray Diffraction less reliable. Utilizing appropriate nanoparticles, functional micro/nano devices are being fabricated using well established LIGA technique.
