Multiple official documents provide a thorough and up-to-date review of the research at the important Center for Nanoscale Science and Technology (CNST). It supports the U.S. nanotechnology enterprise from discovery to production by providing industry, academia, NIST, and other government agencies with access to world-class nanoscale measurement and fabrication methods and technology. The CNST is the only national nanocenter with a focus on commerce. The CNST's shared NanoFab resource gives researchers economical access to and training on a state-of-the-art, commercial tool set required for cutting-edge nanotechnology development. The simple application process is designed to get projects started in a few weeks. Looking beyond the current state of the art, CNST research is creating the next generation of nanoscale measurement instruments and methods, which are made available through collaboration. As the Department of Commerce nanocenter, the CNST provides: A unique user facility offering access to the instrumentation, methods, and technical expertise required to make and measure components at the nanometer scale; A world-class, shared resource for nanoscale measurement and fabrication widely accessible to researchers from both inside and outside NIST; Expertise in a wide variety of disciplines, including physics, chemistry, materials science, molecular biology, computer science, and electrical, mechanical, chemical, and aeronautical engineering; and a hub linking the international nanotechnology community to the comprehensive related measurement expertise throughout NIST.
