MCN/ANFF-VIC New Capabilities Workshop

Following what has been a multi-year $13.7M update to MCN and ANFF-VIC instrumentation and infrastructure, we are organising a two-day event on the 23-24th July at Monash’s New Horizons Building to help raise awareness of the new capabilities and catalyse new research activity. Please save these dates and register your interest in attending using the link below.

The event is FREE and will be conducted in a hybrid (in-person/zoom) format, but there will be awesome incentives for those who attend in-person, such as free assisted sessions with process engineers on the new capabilities, delicious refreshments and the chance to chat with applications engineers and staff on the finer details of your fabrication and character needs.

New capability talks, including:

  • Heidelberg MLA150 – Direct-Write Maskless Lithography
  • 3D Micromac AG – Femtosecond Laser Dicing/Marking/Ablation
  • Eulitha PhableR 100 – Displacement Talbot Lithography
  • Witec – Confocal Raman Microscopy
  • Bruker – AFM Conductivity Probing (PF-TUNA)
  • Oxford, ULVAC & SAMCO – DRIE/RIE & PECVD
  • Chemspeed et al – Robotic/AI Materials Discovery Glovebox
  • AJA – Combinatorial Sputtering
  • and many others…
