Mark Professor of Chemical and Biomolecular Engineering, NYU Tandon:</strong> “The new NYU Nanofab facility will be instrumental for the Engineering and Physical Sciences community at NYU to grow in terms of innovation, research and training. The NYU Tandon engineering school is entering a new phase and only state of the art nanofabrication and nanocharacterization facilities will allow researchers to be competitive with other schools and nations in areas such as quantum materials, nanoelectronics, and nano-biotechnology.”</p> <p><strong><a href="https://as.nyu.edu/faculty/javad-shabani.html">Javad Shabani</a>, Associate Professor of Physics and Director of the Center of Quantum Information Physics (CQIP), NYU</strong>: “NYU Nanofab is vital for our community to make precise semiconductor to quantum devices at nanoscale to research the peculiar laws of quantum physics. It provides researchers at CQIP an opportunity to try new ideas and push the boundaries of fabrication and packaging for quantum computing, communication and sensing.”</p> </div> </div> </div> </div> <div class="field--related-researcher mb-5"> </div> </div> <div class="col-12 col-lg-3 col-xl-2 ml-auto"> <div class="sidebar-wrapper" role="complementary" aria-label="Sidebar"> <div class="sidebar-menu"> <div class="share-social"> <div class="grid"> <a href="http://www.facebook.com/sharer.php?u=https://engineering.nyu.edu/news/chips-and-science-act-spurs-nanofab-cleanroom-ribbon-cutting-nyu-tandon-school-engineering&t=CHIPS%20and%20Science%20Act%20spurs%20NanoFab%20cleanroom%20ribbon%20cutting%20at%20NYU%20Tandon%20School%20of%20Engineering" title="Share on Facebook" aria-label="Share on Facebook" rel="nofollow" class="social-icon-facebook grid-cell grid-square" onclick="window.open(this.href,'targetWindow','toolbar=no,location=0,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=626,height=436'); return false;" data-share="social" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"> <!-- <span class="sr-only d-none">Share on Facebook</span> --> <div class="square square-100" aria-hidden="true"> <i class="icon icon-icon-facebook-purple"></i> </div> </a> <a href="http://twitter.com/share?url=https://engineering.nyu.edu/news/chips-and-science-act-spurs-nanofab-cleanroom-ribbon-cutting-nyu-tandon-school-engineering&text=CHIPS%20and%20Science%20Act%20spurs%20NanoFab%20cleanroom%20ribbon%20cutting%20at%20NYU%20Tandon%20School%20of%20Engineering" class="social-icon-twitter grid-cell grid-square" title="Share on Twitter" aria-label="Share on Twitter" onclick="window.open(this.href,'targetWindow','toolbar=no,location=0,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=626,height=436'); return false;" data-share="social" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"> <!-- <span class="sr-only d-none">Share on Twitter</span> --> <div class="square square-100" aria-hidden="true"> <i class="icon icon-icon-twitter-purple"></i> </div> </a> <a href="http://www.linkedin.com/shareArticle?mini=true&url=https://engineering.nyu.edu/news/chips-and-science-act-spurs-nanofab-cleanroom-ribbon-cutting-nyu-tandon-school-engineering&title=CHIPS%20and%20Science%20Act%20spurs%20NanoFab%20cleanroom%20ribbon%20cutting%20at%20NYU%20Tandon%20School%20of%20Engineering&summary=&source=" title="Share on LinkedIn" aria-label="Share on LinkedIn" class="social-icon-linkedin grid-cell grid-square" onclick="window.open(this.href,'targetWindow','toolbar=no,location=0,status=no,menubar=no,scrollbars=yes,resizable=yes,width=626,height=436'); return false;" data-share="social" target="_blank" rel="nofollow"> <!--<span class="sr-only d-none">Share on LinkedIn</span>--> <div class="square square-100" aria-hidden="true"> <i class="icon-linkedin-square"></i> </div> </a> <a href="mailto:?subject=NYU Tandon&body=Check out this site https://engineering.nyu.edu/news/chips-and-science-act-spurs-nanofab-cleanroom-ribbon-cutting-nyu-tandon-school-engineering" aria-label="E-Mail this Article" title="Share by Email" class="social-icon-youtube grid-cell grid-square"> <!--<span class="sr-only d-none">E-Mail this Article</span>--> <div class="square square-100" aria-hidden="true"> <i class="icon icon-icon-mail-purple"></i> </div> </a> </div> <!-- /.grid --> </div> <!-- /.share-social --> </div> <!-- /.sidebar-menu --> </div> <!-- /.sidebar-wrapper --> </div> </div> </div> <div class="row"> <div class="container fix-breaker d-print-none"> <h2 class="mt-5 mb-3">More to Read</h2> <div class="views-element-container"><div class="view view-content-grid view-id-content_grid view-display-id-related_block js-view-dom-id-95f8383fc57c04b4e0a252feea1f4b9d5e6ede1e30063f896d2a381c7e79f936"> <div class="view-content"> <div class="content-grid"> <div class="row-eq-height zebra-even"> <div class="col card px-0 grid-alternate"> <article class="node node--type-article node--promoted node--sticky node--view-mode-grid" aria-label="News -
