Nanofabrication - Supporting critical technologies and advanced manufacturing

Join Prof Simon Fleming on an interactive facility tour of Australian National Fabrication Facility (ANFF) capabilities followed by a networking event. Prof Fleming is the Academic Director of the ANFF facilities at the University of Sydney and is a research leader in photonics, with over thirty year’s experience. His research track record of over three hundred publications, twenty patents and numerous grants is complemented by extensive experience in working with industry and in the translation of research into commercial outcomes. You can learn more about Prof Fleming through this link.

In this tour you will learn,

1. How things are fabricated on the smallest scales – from microns down to nanometres.
2. How these micro and nano parts are essential for innovative and critical technologies.
3. How ANFF capabilities could be used by anyone through our open-access model.
4. How broader capabilities across ANFF nationally in enabling R&D for Australian businesses.

You will find this tour interesting if you are an innovative,

1. Start-up that requires a hardware prototype to solve a technological challenge.
2. SME evaluating cost-effective strategies for developing your next breakthrough technology.
3. MNC looking to supercharge your R&D capabilities.
4. Individual/sole-trader with an idea looking for support in demonstrating your first proof-of-concept.

ANFF capabilities in the University of Sydney are well known for supporting R&D in the following areas:

1. Quantum computing
2. Micro and flexible electronics
3. Sensor development
4. Semiconductors
5. Integrated photonics
6. Microfluidics

IMPORTANT:

1. Participants for this event must first report to the reception of Sydney Nanoscience Hub on the day of this event. 

2. Participants must wear closed footwear for safety reasons, as there could be movement between laboratories.

3. There will be a catered networking event with light refreshments, as part of the facility tour. Please let us know if you are unable to attend as this will help us organise catering.
