About the National Nanotechnology Coordinated Infrastructure
One of the pillars of the National Nanotechnology Initiative (NNI), created in 2000 to coordinate the nanoscale research and development activity of more than 20 federal agencies, is the importance of user facilitates and networks as part of a robust infrastructure and toolset. Because nanoscale science and engineering often requires expensive equipment and specialized expertise, these facilitates tend to be located at research intensive universities and national laboratories. To help alleviate the lack of these resources in both smaller academic institutions, as well as in the small to medium size commercial sector, the National Science Foundation has supported a network of user facilities for the past forty years. Initially, the National nanotechnology Facility at Cornell (1977-1993), followed by the National Nanotechnology Infrastructure Network (NNIN, 2004-2015) provided specialized nanotechnology resources to all researchers who needed them. The National Nanotechnology Coordinated Infrastructure (NNCI) established in 2015, is the latest version of this national resource.
