About Us

Centre for Nanotechnology

The Centre for Nanotechnology at IIT Guwahati (CFN-IITG) has 22+ Faculty Members and 40+ Research Scholars from Physics, Chemistry, Biosciences, and Engineering Departments (e.g. Bioengineering, Electronics, Chemical, Mechanical, and Design). The CFN-IITG also has collaborations with AIIMS New Delhi, GNRC Hospitals Guwahati, Sankardeva Netralaya Guwahati, and Medical School at IIT Kharagpur. Further, CFN-IITG has 10 permanent staff members and ~15 Project staff members. Also, CFN-IITG have MOUs for biomedical product development with M/S JSV Innovations Private Limited, M/S Primary HealthTech Private Limited, M/S Bioaptagen Private Limited, M/s R R Animal Health Care Limited, and M/S Excel Matrix private Limited.

CFN-IITG has built a state-of-art facility spanning ~10,000 sq. m hosting 20 Laboratories to develop cutting-edge micro/nano electronic biomedical devices employing the principles of nano-biotechnologies. The MeitY Sponsored “Centre of Excellence for Research & Development of Nano electronics Theranostic Devices” at CFN-IITG hosts state-of-art fabrication (ISO 5 & 6 CLEAN ROOMS, lithography, electrospinning, PVD, CVD, ODF, and RIE), characterization (FESEM, AFM, TEM, XRD, UV-VIS, IR, CV, and Confocal) and testing facilities for the development of FET, MEMS/NEMS, SAW, and microfluidic devices.

CFN-IITG has performed 6 technology transfers (TOTs), 50 Prototypes, ~40 patents, and ~200 publications. Thus far, more than 2000 high-end quality manpower have been trained through workshops, projects, joint research initiatives, utilization of facilities and other initiatives. Figure 2 shows the technologies that are already developed by CFN-IITG and transferred to the commercial partners (TOT) in collaboration with AIIMS/GNRC/Sankardeva Netralaya.
