NSI
"Nanostructured Surfaces and Interfaces" is lead by the NanoScience & Technology Centre in Linz (NSTL). The main topics are biocompatible nano-structures, polymers and nanocomposites as well as metal surfaces and interfaces.
NSI draws on the expert knowledge in the Linz/Upper Austria region in significant core fields of nanotechnology in a high-grade interdisciplinary approach, linking bio-nanotechnology, nanocomposites and nanoanalysis. This creates synergies that would not be conceivable with the juxtaposition of individual projects. In the NABIOS project, for example, biologists, chemists and semiconductor physicists collaborate to localise and characterise individual biomolecules on a nanostructured platform. This approach, applicable in a similar form to most NSI projects, is exemplary for nanotechnology, which can only be efficiently utilised if the traditional boundaries of the individual disciplines are overcome.
