Locations of the Network

Competences and Synergies

Competences of leading institutions of the State of Baden-Württemberg in the field of functional nanostructures shall be bundled and existing synergies shall be utilized. Each of the six participating partners in this project can rely on an already sucessful established research focus in the field of nanotechnology. The participating partners complement one another by their research foci in an ideal manner as the following chart shows:

• University of Karlsruhe / KIT Campus South
  Functional devices on the nanometer-scale:
  production, properties and applications
• Forschungszentrum Karlsruhe / KIT Campus North
  Molecular electronics and nano-electronics; nanomaterials
• University of Konstanz
  Nanostructures at interfaces and surfaces
• University of Stuttgart
  Interaction between nanostructures; biological nanostructures
• Max-Planck-Institutes Stuttgart
  Self-assembled nanostructures
• Ulm University
  Nano-hybrid systems built out of molecular functional devices and pre-structured substrates
• moreover participation of individual research groups
  of the Universities of Freiburg, Heidelberg and Tübingen.
