Facilities

Our facilities open up new research potential
In our nanoscience facilities, our researchers and students are devising, fabricating, testing and deploying new nanoscale science and technology that could change the world.

Our facilities are comprised of:

The Sydney Nanoscience Hub is the centrepiece of our commitment to 21st-century science and innovation in one of the most promising modern research areas.

This building houses academic laboratories, core nanofabrication and characterisation facilities, and state-of-the-art teaching spaces all underpinning our core mission in research and education.

The Sydney Nanoscience Hub is jointly funded by the Commonwealth Education Infrastructure Fund and the University of Sydney.

The Sydney NanoProbe Hub is a facility specialising in the nanocharacterisation of biological nanomaterials such as proteins, DNA and extracellular vesicles and interactions of exogenous nanomaterials with bacteria, cells and tissues.
