项目摘要

Nontechnical description:This Major Research Instrumentation award supports the acquisition of a next-generation dual-beam nanofabrication platform for rapid prototyping of materials and devices that enable quantum computing, next-generation electronics, and the study of novel soft/hard matter systems. This instrument enhances intellectual output by empowering researchers to make new nanoscale devices and to modify materials, with greatly improved fidelity and reproducibility, which are needed to bridge the gap between fundamental science and engineering. The tool enables research through its novel ability to fabricate structures with various liquid metals and is paired with scanning electron microscopy for dynamic inspection of the fabrication process. Furthermore, the integration of an ultra-precise stage will provide wafer scale stitching-error-free continuous writing of large-device structures that was previously not possible. Also, the equipped nanomanipulator can be used to test circuits immediately after fabrication and adjust the patterning process accordingly. The instrument will be included in several ongoing activities, where K-12 students can experience scientific instrumentation first-hand. For example, because traditional approaches to bring new students into science have only been partially successful, the centerpiece of the educational outreach program targets young students and the public by stimulating interest in science through the visual arts using nanofabrication inspired by morpho butterflies. With the broad spectrum of materials and systems that can be studied with the instrument, the acquisition will impact research across departments at MIT and the New England region.Technical Description:Direct nanoscale fabrication methods have led to dramatic advancements in the development of new devices, modification of surfaces, and the integration of novel or dissimilar materials. Advances in focused ion beams (FIBs) formed from liquid metal alloy ion sources (LMAIS), in particular, have great expanded direct-write capacities, and can now be exploited for the nanofabrication of nanoplasmonics, fiber-tip optics, quantum devices, electron/x-ray optics. In contrast with Ga-only FIB instruments, the LMAIS provides Si, Ge, or Au beams, which can be used for milling of material with the smallest possible linewidth as well as implanting qubits at targeted locations without the need for masks or pre-processing. This patterning precision is enhanced by simultaneous field emission scanning electron microscopy imaging for in situ fabrication inspection, the inclusion of gas injection sources (Pt, C) for patterning and sample protection, a laser interferometer stage for ultra-precise positioning, wafer scale stitching-error-free continuous writing, a nanomanipulator, and electron beam lithography capabilities. This instrument will thus accelerate intellectual output by empowering researchers to make new, nanoscale devices and modify materials, with greatly improved fidelity and reproducibility, which are needed to bridge the gap between fundamental science and engineering. In terms of research accessibility, the microscopy will be managed by Characterization.nano, a shared experimental facility, which is part of the newly built MIT.nano center. This centrally located facility functions as a cross pollination hub and brings together expertise in nanofabrication, electron microscopy, teaching, and maintenance. This open access center serves local internal and external users, providing training and hands-on usage of the instruments, and is open to researchers across the nation.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
非技术描述:该主要研究仪器奖支持收购下一代双光束纳米纤维平台,用于材料和设备的快速原型制作,从而实现量子计算,下一代电子产品以及新型软/硬物质系统的研究。该仪器通过使研究人员能够制造新的纳米级器件和修改材料来提高智力输出,并大大提高了保真度和再现性,这是弥合基础科学和工程之间差距所必需的。该工具能够通过其新颖的能力来制造各种液态金属结构,并与扫描电子显微镜配对,以动态检查制造过程。此外,超精密工作台的集成将提供晶圆级无重复错误的大型器件结构的连续写入,这在以前是不可能的。此外,配备的纳米操纵器可用于在制造后立即测试电路,并相应地调整图案化过程。该仪器将包括在几个正在进行的活动中,K-12学生可以亲身体验科学仪器。例如,由于传统的方法,使新的学生进入科学只有部分成功,教育推广计划的核心目标是年轻的学生和公众,通过刺激科学的兴趣,通过视觉艺术使用nanofabetries启发大闪蝶。由于该仪器可以研究的材料和系统范围广泛,此次收购将影响麻省理工学院和新英格兰地区各部门的研究。技术描述:直接纳米级制造方法已导致新器件开发,表面改性以及新型或不同材料的集成方面的巨大进步。特别是由液态金属合金离子源(LMAIS)形成的聚焦离子束(FIB)的进展具有极大的扩展的直接写入能力,并且现在可以用于纳米等离子体的纳米制造、光纤尖端光学、量子器件、电子/X射线光学。与仅含Ga的FIB仪器相比,LMAIS提供Si、Ge或Au光束,可用于铣削具有最小线宽的材料,以及在目标位置注入量子位,而无需掩模或预处理。这种图案化的精度提高了同步场发射扫描电子显微镜成像的原位制造检查,包括气体注入源(Pt,C)的图案和样品保护,激光干涉仪阶段的超精密定位,晶圆规模的无重复错误的连续写入,纳米操纵器,和电子束光刻能力。因此,这一仪器将通过使研究人员能够制造新的纳米级器件和修改材料来加速智力输出,并大大提高保真度和再现性,这是弥合基础科学和工程之间差距所必需的。在研究可及性方面,显微镜将由Characterization.nano管理,这是一个共享的实验设施,是新建的MIT.nano中心的一部分。 这个位于中心的设施作为一个交叉授粉中心,汇集了纳米纤维,电子显微镜,教学和维护方面的专业知识。这个开放获取中心为当地的内部和外部用户提供服务,提供仪器的培训和实际使用,并向全国各地的研究人员开放。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命,并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估,被认为值得支持。
