The Research Triangle Nanotechnology Network (RTNN) is a collaboration between North Carolina State University, Duke University, and the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill that offers open access to comprehensive and unique nanotechnology laboratories, equipment, and research expertise. RTNN is a site in the National Science Foundation’s National Nanotechnology Coordinated Infrastructure (NNCI). In order to further our mission to serve as a hub of cutting-edge nanotechnology innovation and education, the RTNN has established a Kickstarter program to allow members of the nanotechnology and greater scientific communities, who would otherwise not have the financial resources
Proposed projects must be focused on research or preliminary development activity or educational programming in an area of nano-scale science, engineering, and/or technology. Competitive proposals should be: (1) limited in scope and (2) involve either hands-on science education, cutting-edge research, or high-risk, high-reward R&D activity with the potential to facilitate disruptive technologies
