Highlights

MNTL is Utilized by the following National Centers/Grants at UIUC:

DARPA – UPRC:

To develop critical technologies including hyper-
uniform, nano-photonic fabrication, high-performance
quantum dot vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers, and
ultra-fast light-emitting transistor-based lasers for the
realization of ultra-fast optoelectronic
interconnect systems.

Center of Hyper-Uniform Nanophotonic Technologies (HUNT)

NSF-NSEC: Nano-CEMMS Center

To develop a reliable, robust and cost-effective nanomanufacturing system to make nanostructures from multiple materials
