In many fields of engineering, such as mechanical engineering, chemical engineering, electrical engineering, electronic engineering, optical engineering, biological engineering and medical engineering, the construction of arbitrarily shaped microstructures on the scale of several tens of nanometers to several micrometers is indispensable for conducting cutting-edge research. To promote microstructure-based research at Kobe University, we established the Nanofabrication Process Technology Center in October 2024 with the support of the “Program for forming Japanʼs peak research universities (J-PEAKS) .”This center is located in the Research Center for Membrane and Film Technology building. In the center, a full-time engineer supports the researchers. The equipment to be installed includes an electron beam lithography system, a deep silicon reactive ion etching system, a maskless aligner, an electron beam evaporation system and a sputtering system. All equipment is expected to be operational by March 2026.In the fields of nanotechnology and biotechnology, all the interfacial phenomena control functional properties of materials themselves. Strategies of manufacturing based on interface are in high demand. In this center, research teams are organized across various education and research fields in order to research interfaces, develop fundamental research on interfacial phenomena, and provide research seeds for next-generation manufacturing. In addition, researchers in the fields of Chemistry, Mechanical Engineering and Electrical & Electronic Engineering cooperate with each other, reinvestigate from novel perspectives and establish frontier interfacial science and unconventional industrial-academia collaboration. This center encourages collaboration in manufacturing based on interfacial functional properties, removing barriers between industry and academia and connecting fundamental research with the seeds for manufacturing. We are actively involved in national research projects and collaborate with various companies. These national research projects include Grants-in Aid for Scientific Research, Cross-ministerial Strategic Innovation Promotion Program SIP, New Energy and Industrial Technology Development Organization NEDO, and JST MIRAI Programs.The following seven research centers are affiliated with the Graduate School of Engineering. Serving as bases for cooperation with the Graduate School of Engineering, these centers aim to develop industry-university cooperation and also promote cutting-edge research in interdisciplinary areas. ☆☆HHooww iiss SSttrruuccttuurree ??☆☆HHooww ttoo CCoonnttrrooll??☆☆HHooww aabboouutt PPrrooppeerrttiieess ?? ☆☆HHooww ttoo EEvvaalluuaattee ?? •Hydrophilicity•Water repellency•Tribology•Coating•Biomaterial•Adhesion•Composite•Laminate•Electronic deviceInterface Research CenterSurfaceBulkInterface Research CenterNanofabrication Process Technology CenterAssociated Research CentersASSOCIATED RESEARCH CENTERS
