The Kavli Institute of Nanoscience at Delft University of Technology consists of seven research groups and a nanofabrication cleanroom facility. With a staff of 25 professors and over 80 PhD students and postdocs, the Institute studies new physics and exploits novel principles in nanostructured devices with a new functionality. The nanostructures vary from superconductors to biopolymers and are obtained from nature or fabricated with bottom-up methods (starting with atoms or molecules) or top-down techniques (such as electron-beam lithography).
