• Vacuum technology (HV, UHV)

• Cryogenics

The unit offers scientific and technical assistance in applied physics, precision instrumentation, microengineering, nanotechnology, scientific computing and 3D design of precision devices. Its main goal is to help address the challenging instrumentation requirements in both basic and applied research. In 2019, the unit developed several new configurations to enable new experiments in the fields of magnetometry, spectroscopy, nanomaterial synthesis, photovoltaics and biodetection. The unit also participated in outreach activities, contributing its experience to design and build prototypes and technology demonstrations.
