Cenimat I3n

CENIMAT| i3N is a national scientific research center sponsored by the Ministry of Science, Technology and Higher Education, through the Foundation for Science and Technology. i3N was created in 2006 as an Associate Laboratory by the Portuguese Minister of Science, Technology and Higher Education, and is a partnership between 2 leading research units in fundamental and applied science: CENIMAT (Materials Research Center, hosted by Nova University of Lisbon) and FSCOSD (Physics of Semiconductors, Optoelectronics, and disordered Systems, hosted by University of Aveiro). After 18 years, the balance is very positive, since i3N achieved a leading position with a strong national and international impact and has been a pioneer in multiple fields such as photovoltaics, thin-film microelectronics, paper electronics, and transparent (oxide) electronics, having contributed to these areas to National and European public policies.
