Research Thrust Areas / Nano-X

Overview

The ability to control and manipulate atoms/molecules makes nanotechnology extremely versatile with potentially unlimited applications. Given the variety of disciplines spanned by this technology, IIT Hyderabad calls this thrust area Nano-X. IITH is conducting state-of-the-art research in both fundamental and applied areas of nanotechnology that is aided by its excellent experimental facilities that includes a clean room facility, SEM, TEM, EDA tools etc. The Fabless Chip Design Incubator is a shining example of IITH’s expertise in Nano-X. This is further underlined by project funding in excess of INR 5 Crores.
