Melbourne Centre for Nanofabrication

Welcome to the Melbourne Centre for Nanofabrication, the Victorian Node and headquarters of the Australian National Fabrication Facility (ANFF). We are a brand new multi-user research facility, operating the largest purpose-built cleanroom complex in the Southern Hemisphere. Drawing upon the wealth of knowledge within six Universities and CSIRO, we are uniquely placed in a thriving cosmopolitan world-centre enabling us to bridge the gaps between scientific disciplines and commercial needs.

We offer open access to leading edge, state of the art equipment and processes for all sectors of industrial, research and academic community, both local and global.

Current expertise is provided in the areas of advanced materials and biotechnology, leading to the development of a wide range of customised sensors, actuators, and devices applied to areas from biomedicine, and energy to nanoelectronics and the environment.
