Start of Stanford Nanofabrication Facility (SNF) Tour

After you enter via the main entrance, you will be at the southern corner of the SNF working area where world class, leading-edge research is being performed. This corner is also the start of a walking tour around the SNF clean room. You can also view the signs online:

Near the end of the tour you can find examples of the end product of these efforts: papers published in peer-reviewed journals. One example is:

Stanford Report, July 3, 2008
Stanford engineers show nanotube circuits can be made en masse

The Clean Room is surrounded by windows so that staff and visitors can observe the work in progress and the touring area has monthly rounds of creative artwork on display

Note that SNF focuses on research in mechanical devices, such as micro-cantilevers, but that the steps are similar to those for the integrated circuit industry. For a typical video of industrial IC fabrication, focusing on transistors see
