NanoPort will bring together the expertise of outside scientists and FEI developers.
The company hopes to create a portal to nanoscale advancement and provide a base for European scientists working in the fields of materials science, semiconductors and data storage, biotechnology, structural biology, proteomics and pathology.
NanoPort houses a complete range of transmission and scanning electron microscopes, focused ion beam and DualBeam systems with FEI's range of automation software for a broad range of applications. Access to NanoPort equipment may also be made available to scientists and start-up programmes working on select research projects.
The improvements at the company's Eindhoven campus bring the total area of its European development and operations centre to nearly 17,000m2.
