Myfab KTH

Electrum Laboratory and Albanova Nanofabrication Facility are the two laboratories operated within the KTH node of Myfab – the Swedish research infrastructure for micro- and nanofabrication.

In Kista the Electrum Laboratory with a 1300 m2 cleanroom area and 1500 m2 additional laboratories is outstanding for fabrication and characterization in the nano and micro scale, supporting the whole chain from education, research and development, to prototyping and production.

At KTH Campus the Albanova Nanofabrication Facility has a 285 m2 cleanroom and 60 m2 additional laboratories. With focus on direct writing technology, the Albanova Nanolab is a flexible resource for basic research requiring nanofabrication and nanocharacterization with a wide variety of materials and substrate.

Three researchers from Swedish universities were awarded the prestigious ERC Advanced grant for research in Physical Sciences and Engineering. One of these is Jan Stake, Professor of Terahertz Electronics at the Department of Microtechnology and Nanoscience. As the only researcher from Chalmers to be given the grant, he now receives approximately SEK 28 million for his research project in semiconductor technology.

On 11 April, the European Research Council announced the names of the 255 researchers awarded €652 million in ERC Advanced Grants. The research grants are given to a wide range of scientific disciplines and aim to provide leading and senior researchers in Europe the opportunity to pursue ambitious research projects with great curiosity that can lead to significant scientific breakthroughs.

Out of 1829 applications, 255 were granted, of which 107 were research projects in Physical Sciences and Engineering. Three of these went to researchers at Swedish universities, including Jan Stake, professor of Terahertz Electronics at MC2 at Chalmers.
