VIAVI Solutions, a global provider of communications test and measurement and optical technologies, has joined the MIT.nano Consortium, a platform for academia-industry collaboration centered around research and innovation emerging from nanoscale science and engineering at MIT.
MIT and Applied Materials announced an agreement that, with a grant from the Northeast Microelectronics Coalition (NEMC) Hub, commits more than $40 million to add advanced nanofabrication equipment to the MIT.nano nanotechnology facility in support of the CHIPS and Science Act and the Microelectronics Commons.
MIT.nano recently celebrated its fifth anniversary by holding The Nano Summit. This first offering of an annual flagship conference for MIT.nano highlighted the research being done at MIT and gave the attendees a peak into future advancements enabled by nanoscience and engineering.
A core team of MIT.nano technical staff has more than 400 combined years of MIT and technical experience. Their wisdom and camraderie have helped MIT.nano launch as MIT's central nanoscience and nanotechnology center, keeping the facilities and its equipment running and supporting the researchers and students who use MIT.nano laboratories.
