We have two Vigor SciLab gloveboxes connected by a T-antechamber, which we use for making solutions of moisture and oxygen sensitive materials and fabricating devices in an inert environment. 

Inovenso NE100 with temperature and humidity control, capable of creating polymer fibers with diameters on the order of 100 nm. This machine is capable of spinning two materials simultaneously, either as separate fibers or in a core-shell configuration.

We have a K-Space ThermalScan TS25 (the first of its kind!) capable of measuring residual film stresses on small substrates over a wide range of environmental conditions. 

Our Horiba Fluorolog-3 Spectrofluorometer is capable of measuring both steady-state and time-correlated single photon counting of fluorescent emission from thin films and solutions. 

Devices can be aged in our Weiss Technik Endurance 180/40 Environmental Chamber, from -40 C to 180 C with relative humidities up to 98%.

We have an OAI TriSol TSS-100US AAA solar simulator capable of AM1.5G conditions over a 100 mm by 100 mm area. 

Our DTS Delaminator is used for testing the adhesion and/or cohesion of thin films in single cantilever, double cantilever, three-point bending, or four-point bending configurations; samples can be tested in ambient or at varying environmental conditions.

With our Mark-10 tensile tester, we can measure the stress/strain responses of bulk materials, giving us information about their Young's modulus, yield point, ultimate tensile strength, and toughness.

We use a highly precise Newmark linear actuator to drive our purpose-built testing setups for measuring the stress-strain response of thin films. We can determine the tensile modulus, yield point, and crack-onset strain for film-on-elastomer systems of all kinds.

Krüss contact angle goniometer with two automated dispensers and a tilt table for measuring the surface energies of materials under different conditions.

We have several Laurell spin coaters, in ambient and inert conditions for thin film fabrication.

We have an OptiGlow ACE system capable of generating plasmas from 10 to 150W, useful for cleaning surfaces, preparing them for functionalization, PDMS bonding, or etching.

Epax X1 SLA 3D printer for rapid prototyping of parts and experimental setups.

Our vacuum oven is used for heating and drying a range of materials and samples.
