EPSRC Capital Award for Core Equipment 2020/21

我们设备齐全、支持良好的现有实验室是我们研究战略的组成部分，在我们的EPSRC产品组合中尤为突出。我们为研究人员提供他们蓬勃发展所需的工具和环境，这是我们研究精神的一个基本方面。我们打算利用这笔整笔拨款，投资购买五件核心设备，以加强这些设施，并惠及工程及物理科学学科各部门的学者，从而整体达致支持多用途设备的目标。此外，其中一个项目是替换现有的一套工具，以满足投资节约目标。本申请中包括的几份申请由早期职业研究人员牵头，实现了支持早期职业研究人员目标的核心设备，以及两件设备还支持支持临界质量博士培养目标的核心设备。将通过这笔赠款购买的五项支持多用户设备的项目是：-无掩膜激光光刻系统-先进的UV-VIS-NIR分光光度计-增强型结构试验台-100kW测功仪系统-化学吸附分析仪

Our well-equipped and well-supported existing laboratory provision is integral to our research strategy, featuring particularly prominently across our EPSRC portfolio. It is a foundational aspect of our research ethos that we provide our researchers with the tools and environments they need to flourish. We intend to use this block grant to invest in five pieces of core equipment which will enhance these facilities and benefit academics across departments within a range of Engineering and Physical Sciences (EPS) disciplines, thus meeting the underpinning multi-user equipment objective for the award as a whole. In addition, one of the items is a replacement for an existing piece of kit, meeting the invest to save objective. Several of the submissions included within this application are led by Early Career Researchers, meeting the Core Equipment in support of Early Career Researchers objective, and two pieces of equipment also support the Core Equipment in support of critical mass doctoral training objective.The five items of underpinning multi-user equipment to be purchased via this grant are: - Maskless laser lithography system- Advanced UV-vis-NIR Spectrophotometer- Enhanced Structural Testing Rig- 100kW Dynamometer System- Chemisorption Analyser
