Welcome to the
Nebraska Center for Materials and Nanoscience
NCMN is a multidisciplinary organization with over 75 faculty members from UNL and other University of Nebraska campuses. We are concerned with atomic manipulation, properties affected by nanoscale dimensions, self-assembly, ordered nanoarrays, quantum dots and wires, nanoelectronics, quantum computing, nanomechanics, nanooptics, molecular design, nanoelectro-mechanical systems, and nanobiological function and life sciences.
