Advanced Nanotechnologies S.L.

Advanced Nanotechnologies S.L. is a Spanish company spun off from the University of Barcelona (UB), which participates in its social capital. Founded by a team of scientists with backgrounds in applied physics and materials engineering alongside professionals experienced in various industrial businesses, the company focuses on materials and surface applications for both consumer and business markets. Its mission centers on delivering innovative nanotechnology-based solutions adapted to specific customer developments, and it supports R&D projects by designing dedicated processes and equipment for each application. The company offers a portfolio of specialized systems for chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and related nanomaterial processing. Its products include the PLASMAN-11 system for plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), the GRAPHMAN system for graphene processing using transparent electrodes and microelectrode patterns, the CTNMAN system for carbon nanotube (CNT) processing with electrochemical electrodes and multielectrode arrays, and the PLASMAION system featuring automatic control and high-vacuum integrated pumping. These tools are designed to be affordable, semi-automatic, and user-friendly for thermal and plasma CVD processes. Beyond equipment, Advanced Nanotechnologies provides R&D services, acting as an external R&D department for companies without integrated research capabilities. It develops R&D projects based on clear technical objectives and committed timelines, helps corporate R&D departments overcome development bottlenecks, and offers consulting services. The company operates primarily from Spain, serving European markets and customers requiring tailored nanotechnology solutions.

Advanced Nanotechnologies S.L. was established as a spin-off company from the University of Barcelona (UB), which holds a stake in its social capital. The founding team combined scientists with extensive experience in applied physics and materials engineering and professionals with strong backgrounds in various industrial businesses. This dual expertise shaped the company's focus on bridging academic nanotechnology research with practical industrial applications. From its base in Spain, the company developed a range of specialized equipment for chemical vapor deposition (CVD) and nanomaterial processing. Its product line includes the PLASMAN-11 system for plasma-enhanced chemical vapor deposition (PECVD), the GRAPHMAN system for graphene processing, the CTNMAN system for carbon nanotube processing, and the PLASMAION system. These systems are designed to be affordable, semi-automatic, and easy to use, targeting both thermal and plasma CVD processes. In addition to hardware, Advanced Nanotechnologies has positioned itself as an external R&D partner for companies lacking internal research capabilities. It undertakes R&D projects with defined technical objectives and timelines, assists corporate R&D departments in resolving development bottlenecks, and provides consulting services. The company continues to operate as a private entity, leveraging its university origins to deliver nanotechnology solutions adapted to specific customer needs.
