The National Nanofabrication Facility (NNF) at Cornell University is an interdisciplinary center, whose primary role is to provide resources and technical expertise to researchers in microstructure science, particularly in the areas of advanced lithographies, nanostructure physics, scanning tunneling microscopy for fabrication and analysis, optoelectronic and electronic applications, microfabrication applications to biology, and related areas. NNF provides equipment, training , and expertise to leading edge research in a "hands-on" environment where the user is responsible for the conduct of that research. NNF has a program of discrete projects under the supervision of academic mentors at Cornell whose research is associated with the Facility. The proposed period of performance takes particular advantage of ongoing NNF educational activities as well as interaction with other REU programs campus-wide. Ongoing NNF educational activities include general laboratory orientation; wet chemical safety orientation; and "NanoCourses". Several events are planned to encourage interaction with other REU Students on campus, and some NNF participants will work in teams or in collaboration with students in other programs. All students are required to present their project results at a concluding all-campus Forum and to prepare a final report. NNF again is targeting women and minority undergraduates, and schools with small-to-medium-sized programs presumed to have limited laboratory facilities. The program goals are for a total of 12 participants, at least 9 of whom are not regularly enrolled at Cornell, and 6 are women or underrepresented minorities.

康奈尔大学的国家纳米纤维设施（NNF） 是一个跨学科的中心，其主要作用是提供 资源和技术专长， 微结构科学，特别是在先进的 光刻，纳米结构物理，扫描隧道 制造和分析用光电显微镜 电子应用、微细加工应用， 生物学及相关领域。 NNF提供设备，培训， 和专业知识，以领先的前沿研究“动手” 环境，用户负责的行为， research. NNF有一个离散项目计划， 康奈尔大学学术导师的监督， 与设施有关。 拟议执行期间 特别利用正在进行的NNF教育活动 以及与校园内其他REU项目的互动。 正在进行的NNF教育活动包括一般实验室 定向;湿化学品安全定向;和“纳米课程”。 计划举办几项活动，鼓励与其他 REU学生在校园里，一些NNF参与者将在 团队或与其他项目的学生合作。 所有 学生必须在一个 总结全校论坛并准备最后报告。 NNF 再次针对女性和少数民族大学生， 中小规模的项目， 实验室设施。 该计划的目标是总共12个 参与者，其中至少9人没有定期参加 康奈尔大学，6名是妇女或代表性不足的少数民族。
