About the

NanoFIB network


 

This EPSRC network is set up to link together people with common interests in the nano-processing and nanoanalysis of materials using focused ion beams (FIB). Membership is open to everybody.
The Network aims :
1. To be a U.K.-based forum, holding regular scientific discussion meetings for the synergistic transfer of technology and scientific ideas between academic FIB users, industrial users and FIB system suppliers.
2. To establish a central UK website on FIB.

3. To pin-point, and help develop the most exciting applications of FIB in key targeted areas including (i) nanofabrication, (ii) microstructural analysis of nanomaterials, and (iii) novel instrumental and technique development.

4. To encourage collaborative research between Network members, with the establishment of joint research programmes and research proposal submissions.

5. To link young scientific researchers working in the growing FIB nanotechnology field more closely to UK industry, broadening their scientific and technological skills.
Steering Committee:
Dr. B.J. Inkson (Chair), Prof. M. Blamire, Prof. A.G. Cullis, Prof. A.K. Petford-Long, Prof. P. Prewett, Dr. M. Gregg, Prof. A. Craven.
