NanolabNL is a collaboration between the University of Twente and three other universities, namely Delft University of Technology, Eindhoven University of Technology and the University of Groningen. The UT is lead partner, with Miriam Luizink as chair.
NanolabNL uses the money to develop new materials, sensors and devices with unique nanostructures. These activities all fall under the moniker of QuEEn, an investment programme on quantum electrical engineering. Researchers are working on the discovery of new materials and material structures with special quantum properties. Using innovative manufacturing techniques, NanolabNL is able to develop complex sensors and detectors that can measure even the tiniest forces thanks to their enormous sensitivity.
"I leave the NanoLab with my head held high," says Miriam Luizink, Technical-Commercial Director of MESA+, who will take up her new position as Strategic Business Development Director as of today.
Five years ago, NanoLabNL was also successful in the National Roadmap programme, when it was able to set up the BioNanoLab laboratory after being granted six million euros in subsidy.
