Birck Nanotechnology Center

01/24/2024

Research at Purdue invites those on campus to attend an open house at the Birck Nanotechnology Center on January 31 from 2-4 p.m.

The event will focus on upgrades to the facility and plans for the future, which reflect Purdue University's commitment to providing its students and faculty with state-of-the-art research infrastructure.

Topics covered during the information session will include the U.S. Chips Act, quantum initiatives and potential translational research opportunities and a vision for engaging with semiconductor companies and start-ups under CHIPS Act R&D programs while supporting broader, more fundamental research.

Speakers will include Zhihong Chen, Director of the Birck Nanotechnology Center, and Mark Lundstrom, Chief Semiconductor Officer at Purdue (and founding director of nanoHUB!) among others.

Did you know there are parts of the world where you can extract water from the air? Different methods work better in different places. David Warsinger explains how this map could be the key to new sources of fresh water around the world: https://engineering.purdue.edu/ME/News/2022/atmospheric-water-harvesting-can-we-get-water-out-of-thin-air

The United States wants to build its own computer chips again but not enough workers know how. Purdue is one of several universities racing to expand education.

MSE Assistant Professor, Rahim Rahimi has created a process that immobilizes silver onto the implant surfaces of titanium orthopedic devices to improve antibacterial properties and cellular integration. This can help reduce infection when medical devices are implanted into people. bit.ly/Rahimi-Silver

What is nanotechnology?

We’d like to help answer that question for by sharing our series on nanoHUB, Introductory Seminars on “What is Nanotechnology?”

Since a nanometer is 10-9 meters, October 9th, or 10-09, is the perfect day to celebrate.
