We make use of a broad array of micro- and nano-fabrication tools at open access clean room facilities located at the Ecole Polytechnique and McGill University in Montreal



Nanoscience Group facilities

Our group is a member of the Nanoscience Group at Concordia which shares a large number of facilities

 

Cryostat

This is a photo of a low-temperature cryostat

Low-temperature cryostat (1.5 - 300 Kelvin) equipped with a mechanical breakjunction assembly and a 9 Tesla magnet. Allows a wide range electron transport experiments in nanosystems aa a function of temperature (energy), magnetic field, and mechanical strain.

 

Helium leak detector

This is a photo of a helium leak detector

High precision helium-3 and helium-4 leak detector equipped with a turbo-molecular pump. Permits the operation and maintenance of helium-3 and helium-4 low-temperature cryostats.

 

Optical microscope
