The sector manufactures and characterizes electronic devices at the nanoscale for the study of electronic and ionic conduction properties and for the emulation of neuromorphic functions. In addition, nanoarchitectures based on nanomaterials are created and characterized for the implementation of neuro-inspired computation paradigms. Nb/NbOx/Au structures are also created for preliminary studies of the resistive switching behavior. (Objectives in line with the Focal Point Accelerating digital transformation and supporting industrial transitions, Improving the quality and impact of fundamental scientific research, Monitoring the environment and support the development of clean technologies).
