Research in the Center for Nanoscale Chemical-Electrical-Mechanical Manufacturing Systems (Nano-CEMMS) addresses a
central problem in the development of nanotechnology: how to assemble structures at sizes smaller than can be seen (or
transduced) and manipulated (or transcribed). Making three-dimensional, nanoscale devices and systems from millions to
trillions of different types of molecules is incredibly difficult. The Center’s goal is to develop a reliable, robust
and cost-effective nanomanufacturing system to make nanostructures from multiple materials. This technology will allow
advancements and discoveries in nanoscience to move from the laboratory to production.
The Nano-CEMMS Center is a partnership of the University of Illinois, Stanford University, North Carolina Agricultural
and Technological State University, University of California - Irvine, University of Notre Dame, and Northwestern
University. Each partner offers unique facilities, eminent scholars and financial resources to support the Center's
research.
One of the Center’s core missions is to develop a diverse U.S. workforce of educators, scientists, engineers, and
practitioners to advance nanomanufacturing technology in the U.S. and beyond. Nano-CEMMS provides a wide range
of human resource development activities targeted toward increasing both the diversity of students involved with the
Center and educational opportunities at the K-12 and undergraduate levels, as well as providing graduate students with
teaching experience in an emerging field. In addition, both undergraduate and graduate students have opportunities to
participate in the Center’s work through research assistantships and independent study projects.

Nano-Nugget Nano-Microfluidic Approach to Inkjet Nozzles Non-contact solution printing methods
such as thermal or piezoelectric inkjet
are attractive due to their compatibility
with various materials and substrates.
Interests in their applications in
electronics and biotechnology, where
requirements on resolution can be
demanding, have grown rapidly in
recent years. We have successively
developed an electrohydrodynamic jet
(e-jet) printing method in which diverse
functional organic / inorganic inks
(single walled carbon nanotubes,
nanoparticles, conducting / insulating
polymers, etc) can be ejected with
submicron printing resolutions. Read More…
