NewSpace Lab
ICFO
The Institute of Photonic Sciences (ICFO) aims to advance the very limits of knowledge in several fields of science and technology where photonic tools and related concepts provide an edge.
Infrastructure/equipment
Platform NM3
The platform includes highly specialised equipment for micro- and nano-manufacturing, located in dedicated clean room spaces, nano-characterisation equipment and general facilities for chemistry, biology and of post-process. It also includes advanced facilities for mechanical and electronic engineering.
The institute also hosts specific R&D facilities dedicated to design, manufacture, characterisation, integration and prototyping of photonic chips; components, devices and subsystems essential for space technologies, with a focus on quantum technologies and its ICT applications (communications, memories, processing of information, sensors, medicine).
