Integrated Nanosystems Research Facility (INRF)

The Integrated Nanosystems Research Facility at The University of California, Irvine (INRF UCI) in the Henry Samueli School of Engineering is dedicated to developing and promoting micro and nanotechnology through research, education, and outreach. The INRF advances multidisciplinary research by fostering communication between traditionally distant fields such as bioscience and engineering and by enlisting researchers from diverse backgrounds. The facility is a 9,600 square-foot class 100/1,000/10,000 clean room equipped with all the major devices for micro and nanofabrication. Capabilities include diverse disciplines such as MEMS, biology, chemistry, optics, and physics equipped with all the major devices for micro and nanofabrication.  Learn More…

Institute for Design and Manufacturing Innovation (IDMI)

IDMI strives to be a leader in science-based manufacturing, employing state-of-the-art techniques from materials modeling and characterization, sensing technologies, process modeling, optimal design, and data sciences. The affiliated faculty have key expertise in scalable micro/nanomanufacturing, modeling, design, and control for manufacturing and advanced characterization.  IDMI develops novel fabrication processes for a wide gamut of materials, from hard metals to soft polymers and biological materials. Technical staff and exceptional facilities are available to help partners solve manufacturing challenges and develop new products.

The key vision behind all of the educational programs that IDMI offers is to educate the next generation of manufacturing leaders. IDMI develops and delivers innovative curriculum in manufacturing science for K-12 schools in our districts, community college students, UCI undergraduate, and graduate students, as well as a variety of industrial partners and entrepreneurs. The key facilities – Rapidtech and Fabworks – provide exceptional opportunities for hands-on learning at all levels. Learn More…
