ATOMIN 2.0 - ATOMic scale science for the INnovative economy

A center for atomic-scale materials research for an innovative economy, the so-called Atomin 2.0 project, has been established as a part of a joint venture of the Faculty of Chemistry and the Faculty of Physics, Astronomy and Applied Computer Science, Jagiellonian University.

The center′s structure includes five specialized laboratories dedicated for research in the fields of nanotechnology, advanced materials, biomedicine, photonics and computational methods.

The project has enabled the foundation of modern and unique apparatus for scientific research and commercial services designed for advanced exploration of innovative materials for telecommunications and information technology, energy, medical and environmentally friendly applications purposes.
