The cleanroom facility at the Department of Physics provides a high-class cleanroom environment for micro and nanofabrication processes. Researchers can access dedicated Class 1000 and Class 100 areas and the following equipment for sample preparation and lithographic processing:

  • Dedicated laminar flow benches for wet chemical processing and etching
  • Programmable spin coaters and hotplates for resist processing
  • Double-sided mask alignment for UV photolithography
  • Sputter coating and thermal evaporation for thin-film deposition
  • Oxygen plasma barrel etching
  • Megasonic wafer cleaning
  • Substrate bonding with wafer alignment
  • Electron beam lithography

We provide training for researchers to use our equipment and we welcome enquiries from across the University of Oxford and beyond, including from commercial and industrial users.
