Weighing out samples in our thin-film clean-room. Here, we have a class 10,000 clean-room which we use to perform simple lithography and also prepare thin organic and metallic films and photonic devices.

Our Omicron low-temperature UHV AFM / STM system. This is being used to study the physical and electronic structure of device applicable organic thin-films, biomolecules and various bacteria.

Our glove-box in the North-Campus Nanoscience clean room. This system is linked to a Kurt Leskar evaporator system and is used for fabrication and encapsulation of OPVs and OLEDs.
