  Building Uses:
> The advanced nanofabrication core facility will integrate
> classic semiconductor tools and processes with biological,
> chemical, and medical substrates to support research in
> electronic and photonic devices, microelectromechanical
> devices, advanced materials processing, and biotechnology
> devices. 
>
The core facility offers cross-disciplinary expertise in the
> areas of spectroscopy, biology, chemistry, physics, optics,
> electrical engineering, and engineering science.  A full
> complement of utilities including high purity DI water, high
> purity nitrogen, reactive gases, and chilled water are
> available to each process bay. These utilities also include
> a wide range of processing and characterization equipment
> that enables fabrication of electrical, optical, and
> micromechanical devices to support fundamental and
> applied research in diverse fields spanning from
> electronics to medicine.
