Centre for Nanoscience and Nanotechnology
We are an interdisciplinary research centre bridging science and engineering.
Nanoscience
We research how quantum mechanical and thermodynamic properties of molecules, nanostructures, multilayers and glassy materials can be modified.
Our research
Research areas within the Nanoscience Group in Physics at Bath.
Who we are
Find out more about us and join us at one of our seminars.
Facilities and collaborations
The Nanoscience group is part of a larger community working on Nanoscience at the University of Bath and more widely, and the group uses or maintains shared research facilities.
David Bullett Nanofabrication Facility
We provide access and training on specialist equipment for micro-scale and nano-scale fabrication for University of Bath researchers and external organisations.
Physics Experimental and Computational Facilities
At Bath, we have extensive nanofabrication and characterisation facilities such as the David Bullett clean room and the imaging facility.

Ultrafast Control of Nonlinear Hot Dirac Electrons in Graphene: An International Collaboration
Dr. Habib Rostami, from the Department of Physics at the University of Bath, has co-authored this pioneering research published in Advanced Science.
2023 Journal of Chemical Physics Emerging Investigators Special Collection
PhD student Hesam Mohammadi’s paper selected for Emerging Investigators Special Collection.
Can a new technique for capturing ‘hot’ electrons make solar cells more efficient?
A Bath discovery opens a new route for measuring and controlling hot electrons. The hope is that more energy will be available to power solar cells.
