Everything about The Molecular Foundry totally explained
The
Molecular Foundry is one of
five Nanoscale Science Research Centers sponsored by the
United States Department of Energy. The Foundry, dedicated on March 24, 2006, is a $85 million, six-story, 94,500 square-foot building at the
Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory, in
Berkeley,
California. The Foundry's Director is
Carolyn R. Bertozzi.
The Molecular Foundy is divided into six floors of varying manifestations of nanoscience. The first floor houses the most advanced imaging technology known to man, including a
transmission electron microscope, a
scanning electron microscope, and
atomic force microscopy. The second floor has one of the biggest clean rooms in the city of Berkeley. The third floor provides facilities for theoretical and computational research, including a 432-processor computer cluster. Work on the fourth floor, run by UC Berkeley's Paul Alivisatos, investigates inorganic nanostructures such as
quantum dot technology and nanocrystals to harvest solar energy. The fifth floor is known as the Nanobio Facility, and is the home to one of the greatest biomimetic materials producing factories in the world. Finally, the sixth floor houses the Organic Nanostructures Facility and is run by UC Berkeley's
Jean Fréchet.
The Molecular Foundry is a user facility and is always open to proposals from scientists around the world.
