MNNFC (IISc)
Indian Institute of Science | Research Fab
TipWhy This Matters
India’s premier academic micro/nano fabrication facility. Trains the next generation of semiconductor researchers.
What does this facility make?
Research-grade micro and nano devices for academic research — not commercial production. Used for prototyping MEMS sensors, photonic devices, and novel semiconductor structures.
Why does it matter?
A semiconductor industry needs a pipeline of researchers and engineers who understand fabrication at a fundamental level. MNNFC at IISc is where much of this human capital is developed.
