Micro/nanoengineering

This Unit specialises in micromachining techniques (dry and wet etching, PVD, electrodeposition, replication, bonding, hot embossing) and ultra-precision techniques (micro-milling, microelectroerosion, laser micromachining and microinjection). Its strategic research is geared towards knowledge of the machining process and nanoprinting lithography (NIL), this latter process mainly centring on health applications such as fabric engineering, DNA stretching and protein chips.

Main projects.
Material micro/nano-structuring. Structuring of material surfaces in 2 and 3 dimensions with different geometries.
Micromoulds for orthodontic brackets. Micromoulds for making transparent plastic brackets, of high quality and with great adherence...
Cochlear implants. or auditory nerve stimulation by electrical impulse-producing electrodes.
