The Center for Nanoscale Systems is a shared use core facility at Harvard
University. Our scientific focus is the study, design, and fabrication of
nanoscale structures and their integration into large and complex interacting
systems.
Virtual Tour of CNS
The Center for Nanoscale Systems is a shared use core facility at Harvard
University. Our scientific focus is the study, design, and fabrication of
nanoscale structures and their integration into large and complex interacting
systems.

Monday, November 11th is the Veteran's Day holiday. CNS will be operating in a
weekend/holiday mode on that day. The labs will be available to Users but there
will be little to no staff presence and the toxic gasses in the cleanroom will
be off.

CNS Facilities
Two sites. Three exceptional research resources.


CAMBRIDGE:
NANOFABRICATION

The Center for Nanoscale Systems' Nanofabrication Facility, provides resource
and staff support for fabricating and characterizing nanoscale devices and
structures.

Read Overview


CAMBRIDGE:
IMAGING AND ANALYSIS

The Cambridge image and analysis team provide a wide range of tools, training
and expertise focused on electron microscopy, optical microscopy, and x-ray
analyses

Meet the Rowland Institute!



Wednesday, October 23rd, 2024
1:30 p.m. — 6:00 p.m.
Ory Forum, Goel Building, 60 Oxford St.

The Rowland Institute was founded by Edwin H. Land in 1980 as The Rowland
Institute for Science, conceived to advance science in a wide variety of fields.
In 2002 the Institute merged with Harvard and created the Rowland Fellowship
program to support independent early-career experimentalists to accomplish
high-risk, groundbreaking research across the natural sciences & engineering. We
moved to main campus in summer 2024 and we are thrilled to invite you to join us
at a minisymposium to meet the Rowland community.
