  9. Instrumentation for Characterization • Scanning electron microscopes (SEM, SEM+EDS) • Atomic force microscopes (AFM): standard, environmental • Near-field optical microscope (SNOM) • Transmission electron microscopes (TEM) • Confocal microscopes • X-raymicrotomography (bestresolution 50 nm) • Single crystal X-ray diffraction • NMR spectroscopy equipment • Optical spectrometers (IR, vis-UV, CD, Raman, fluoresc.) • Nano and femtosecond lasers (UV to IR, 20 fs) • Cryo and vacuum instrumentation • Ionbeamanalysistools for elementaldepthprofiling (down to nmdepthresolution)

  10. Business co-operation at the NSC Weofferservices and solutions in the fields of: • Analysis and characterization • Applied R&D projects • Fabrication of nanostructures • Thesis projects (BSc, MSc)

  11. Multidisciplinary Nanoscience Curriculum • Objective is to give students strong education and a broad view about natural sciences • National graduateschool in nanoscience, NGS-NANO, for PhDstudents • International Master’sProgramme in Nanoscience • Bachelorsdegree in nanoscience

  12. Studies in nanoscience Nanoscience BSc students have a major and two minors: physics, physical chemistry, organic chemistry, cell and molecular biology NSC has special nanoscience courses. MSc theses are prepared on cross-disciplinary topics Curriculum provides students a large toolbox of knowledge in natural science to serve science, industry and public sector

  13. Publications # Citations/year # Publications/year • Publicationshaveappeared in international high-levelpeer-reviewedjournalssuch as Nature, NatureCommunications, AngewandteChemie, PhysicalReviewLetters, NanoLetters…

  14. Research highlights:international cooperation • Portable ultrasensitive superconducting X-ray spectrometer by prof. Ilari Maasilta and Dr. Kimmo Kinnunen • How the gut gets its villi – Computational modelling by Dr. Tuomas Tallinen

  15. Research highlights by NSC A new method to label enteroviruses with functionalized gold nanoclusters providing new tools for bioimaging • new information on virus trafficking in cells and tissues as well as on the mechanisms of virus opening inside cells • the method is expected to be useful for developing new antiviral vaccines based on virus-like particles. • Dr. T. Lahtinen, Dr. K. Salorinne, J. Koivisto, prof. M. Pettersson (Chemistry), prof. H. Häkkinen (chemistry/physics), Dr. S. Malola (physics), M. Martikainen and FT V. Marjomäki (biology)

  16. AnnualEvents • Nanoscience Days, October • Highlevelspeakerspresent new results, trends and perspectives in the field of nanoscience • Business Day, March • Bringstogetherresearchers, students and business interested in nanosciences

  17. Unique platform – 10-year Anniversary The cross-disciplinary approach with our modern research infrastructure has proved to be a successful idea and has resulted in top level research ranging from fundamental theory to commercial solutions
