To study processes at the level of single molecules and single cells, the tools need to be on the same size scale as the objects under study. We therefore develop micro and nanofluidic devices on scales ranging from tens of nanometers to hundreds of micrometers to manipulate, visualize and sort biomolecules, cells and other bioparticles. Research areas:Single-molecule biosensingNanoconfined molecu

To generate the knowledge needed to implement Safe(r)-and-sustainable-by-design, we assess real-world emissions and exposure as well as properties of emitted particles in all stages of the life cycle of a nanomaterial. We are at the forefront when it comes to exposure/emission characterization with advanced state-of-the-art online and offline instrumentation, such as time-of-flight aerosol mass sp

Here we have collected answers to questions about safety of nanomaterials that we are often asked when meeting visitors, school classes or the general public. Our research concerns manufactured (also called engineered) nanoparticles in contrast to nanoparticles that occur naturally. Many questions that we are often asked when meeting visitors, school classes or the general public concern nanosafet

We employ quantum thermodynamics to develop new paradigms for energy conversion and quantum devices at the nanoscale, where thermal and quantum fluctuations may conspire to profoundly alter the physical properties. We set focus on interacting few- or many-particle quantum systems where effects of quantum correlations, fluctuation statistics and quantum coherence lead to fundamentally new physics w

Patterning methods at the nanoscale play a decisive role in our capability to make nanostructures with good control of their interfaces and thus electrical, optical and other properties of the devices. What approaches can be used to achieve highest possible resolution, preferably with atomic-scale accuracy with high throughput? This and other questions are addressed in Novel patterning methods, wh

At the nanoscale, light interacts with matter in novel ways. There are many ways to affect the way light and matter interacts by designing suitable nanostructures. We investigate both how to understand the nanostructures on a quantum level as well as how to control light using nanostructures. Is it possible to improve optical devices using nanostructures? Can we go down and see exactly how nanostr
