Nano order from Italian researchers
Surrey NanoSystems has won a major order for its NanoGrowth 1000n carbon nanotube growth tool from the Italian advanced technologies research institute ITA.
“We are delighted to win such an influential order and are especially pleased with technical feedback that we will receive from ITA, which will help us to bring further processing modules and techniques to market more quickly,” said Ben Jensen, Surrey NanoSystems’ cto.
ITA selected the NanoGrowth tool for its ability to repeatably grow defined carbon nanotube configurations, and to grow materials at low temperatures. The institute will use the equipment to research carbon nanotube based nanocomposites and mechanical sensors, for medical and aerospace applications.
