Thin films are the building blocks of a wide variety of nanomaterials and devices. We possess a wide range of facilities to grow thin films based on organic (polymers or small molecules), metallic and oxide thin films. Techniques span solution based spin-coating or electrodeposition to deposition in high vacuum using for example pulsed laser deposition and sputtering.
