UNT began construction at Discovery Park on its new Nanofabrication Analysis and Research Facility, one of the most advanced materials analysis laboratories at any university with the ability to collaborate globally via computers. The $6.4 million project, funded in part by a National Science Foundation grant, will integrate UNT’s Center for Advanced Research and Technology with a new 3,000-square-foot clean room that will allow scientists to synthesize and process samples of new materials and then examine them at the molecular and atomic levels.
