School on Nanotechnologies: processes and applications to sensors and actuators

According to the increasing request of STEM skills, the school keeps, for the sixth year, offering a great opportunity to understand how nanodevices are studied, designed, fabricated and controlled.

The course is dedicated to Master degree and Ph.D students, as well as to scientists working in the wide field of micro- and nano-technology, with attention to both planar and 3D technologies. Besides the lectures dedicated to single technology steps, building blocks of the silicon-based micro- and nano-fabrication technologies, there will be sessions dedicated to devices application areas. Especially in nanoscience, where results require huge amounts of time and resources, enhance research results requires mastering data and their management. The European Community, and the EU funded projects, ask to share information according to open and standardized models in order to fasten research to innovation times. The school will offer talks on the FAIR data management paradigm, today massively diffused in the scientific community.

The school is organized by It-fab (http://itfab.bo.imm.cnr.it/), the Italian network for Micro and Nano Fabrication research infrastructures.
