The facility offers a common platform for the convergence of multiple disciplines and facilitates collaborative research.
The Colorado Shared Instrumentation in Nanofabrication and Characterization (COSINC) core research facility will have a virtual open house on Jan. 29 via Zoom. Located within the College of Engineering and Applied Science, COSINC provides access to state-of-the-art equipment in the areas of micro and nanofabrication, nanomaterials characterization and metrology and offers expertise and advanced hands-on training in the same related areas. It is an open-research facility serving the academic, industrial and governmental researchers across campus and beyond.听Facility Director Aju Jugessur and guests听will provide an overview of the newly built Material Characterization facility on the east campus, followed by research talks on the applications of various material characterization methods and live hands-on demonstrations on several instruments.
Registration is听required and can be done through an online form. An Outlook invitation with meeting details will be sent before Jan. 25. For questions, contact Jugessur or Catie Gibson in the AV名湿 Support Office.
