The Institute of Nanoscience and Nanotechnology (INN) of NCSR “Demokritos” was established from the merger of the Institutes of Materials Science, Microelectronics and Physical Chemistry, as a result of a national reorganization of research institutions in Greece. INN efficiently organizes and integrates most of the best research and human resources available in Greece to address the innovation challenge and to increase the European competitiveness of the Country in Key Enabling Technologies (KETs) such as nanotechnology, micro- and nanoelectronics, advanced materials, biotechnology and photonics.
