BCMaterials, which stands for ''Basque Center for Materials Applications & Nanostructures - BCMaterials Materials Fundazioa'', is an autonomous research center located on the Basque Country, Spain. It covers all aspects of research in Functional Materials with advanced Electric, Magnetic and Optical properties; from basic aspects to applications. Special activity is devoted to thin films materials and characterization techniques involving Large International Facilities, like neutron and synchrotron radiation sources. Aiming a world leadership in Materials Research, the BCMaterials is currently developing his activity in three main lines, namely: * Active (smart) materials * Advanced functional materials * Functional Materials for applications to energy, sensors, accelerators. All of these lines already count with a number of high level researchers and facilities that are shared with the University of the Basque Country. Specific facilities are a clean room for thin film deposition and nanolithography, Sputtering, Pulsed Laser Deposition and Spin Coating as well as lift-off and RIE facilities for lithography, profilometry, Atomic/Magnetic Force Microscopy, SQUID and Magneto Optical Kerr Effect (MOKE) magnetometry, etc. Ikerbasque, the Basque Foundation for Science, accorded in March 2011 the creation of a new center of research: the Basque Center for Materials, Applications and Nanostructures. The center will make part of the BERC’s (Basque excellence Research Centers) network.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.elmundo.es/elmundo/2011/03/28/paisvasco/1301337098.html )〕〔http://ciencia.elcorreo.com/tecnologia/2012-06-25/tres-nuevos-centros-investigacion-excelencia-20120625.html〕 ==History== On April 2012, the BCMaterials Foundation has been put forward〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://elpais.com/diario/2011/03/29/paisvasco/1301427610_850215.html )〕 by the contributions of Ikerbasque and the University of the Basque Country. This foundation supports the BCMaterials activities and provides a way for fluid interplay with other academic departments and institutes, technological centers, industry and public institutions. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「BCMaterials」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
