Laboratory of Microfabrication

About

<p>Explore traditional top-down microfabrication techniques and non-traditional based on laser direct writing processes.</p>

<p>Our laboratory explores non-traditional microfabrication techniques, based on femtosecond laser direct writing processes, constantly striving to implement the latest and most innovative procedures. Extensive experience in the design and production of microscale sensors endows our researchers with unique and transversal skills, making this laboratory a reference in its field.</p> <p>Location: FCUP.</p>

Where we act

<p>In the digital age, sensors play a key role, essential to the transformation of various sectors. The application of sensor-based technology, incorporating different types of sensors and micro/nano components, is transversal across numerous fields of activity. Our facilities and equipment enable the development of technologies with a wide range of academic and sectoral applications. From industry to healthcare, agriculture, transport, energy, and security, sensors add significant value to the operation of equipment, the management of machinery, and production processes.</p>

What we offer

We strive to develop materials that are as precise and effective as possible, to better understand the environments in which they are deployed. Adaptability and efficiency are among the key characteristics of the devices we develop.

Equipments
