Myfab Lund

Myfab Lund or Lund Nano Lab (LNL) is a cleanroom facility with a world-class expertise in epitaxial growth and processing of semiconductor nanowires. The laboratory is one of the essential resources for NanoLund researchers, but it is open for other academic and industrial users. The Myfab Lund staff supports its customers with the cleanroom and safety training, equipment support and technology development. The laboratory is actively used in several courses for undergraduate and graduate students thus linking education with fundamental/applied research and industry.

We welcome all users to access the equipment for fundamental research and development in the fields of materials science, nanotechnology, microelectronics, life science and quantum technology. Myfab Lund is staffed with metrology, equipment and process experts who are available to train and guide you. We also educate students enrolled at Lund University and participate in outreach activities for the local community and society. Myfab Lund has been a member of Myfab, the Swedish Research Infrastructure for Micro and Nano Fabrication since 2016.

Joining forces to strengthen skills and access

Lund University, Chalmers University of Technology, and KTH Royal Institute of Technology – three universities that account for the majority of Swedish education and research in the field of semiconductors – are now joining forces to strengthen the supply of skills and access to research infrastructure in the country.

The three universities will train employees at small and medium-sized companies and startups,  with knowledge of technology and software support needed to develop semiconductor systems. They also aim to simplify access to pilot lines, which are essential facilities for developing and scaling up new semiconductor technology. The higher education institutions also highlight the need for increased learning through a broad range of undergraduate courses and collaboration with industry considering in-demand skills development for professionals. 

"In a troubled world, we create independence and contribute to ensuring access to critical components in Europe"

“Our three universities strive to work together to strengthen the competitiveness of Swedish industry and society for digitalisation, security, and the green transition. In a troubled world, we create independence and contribute to ensuring Europe access to critical components,” says Erik Renström, Vice-Chancellor of Lund University.

“The expertise and infrastructure in the form of cleanrooms and design environments at our universities give Sweden a strong starting point in a European context. The technical universities can be socially important actors of crucial importance and this investment is a way for us to take that responsibility,” says Martin Nilsson Jacobi, President of Chalmers.

“We are well equipped to join forces to become a strong partner for the next step in the EU's chips initiative. We three universities complement and strengthen each other,” says Anders Söderholm, President of KTH.
