| The Probe Innovation Facility |
The PIF is a unique lab that serves as an incubator for new probes of nanostructure behavior and associated instrumentation development. It is equipped with a suite of scanning probes, opto-electronic/transport tools, and optical probes that are so recently developed as not to be available on commercial instruments. The environment facilitates the development and refinement of new probes.
