Grundsteinlegung for the laboratory for nano and quantum engineering (LNQE) the Leibniz University of Hanover

On Friday, 5 October 2007 starting from 11 o'clock is it so far: In the presence of the Minister of Lower Saxony for science and culture, Lutz Stratmann, the foundation-stone for the new nano-technology center on the housing estate cutter mountain 38, is put 30167 Hanover. Commencement of construction was in September 2007. Is planned to establish the building within 18 months. There is more information to the laboratory for nano and quantum engineering in the InterNet under: www.LNQE.uni hannover.de. The country Lower Saxony establishes a new research center within the central range of the university for the Leibniz University of Hanover. The entire building sum amounts to 12.8 million euro. The national building management Hanover has the architect's office KSP angel and Carpenter, Niederlassung Braunschweig after a European-wide selective procedure, whom above ground construction planning and construction supervision assign.A avowed goal is it to lift with the LNQE research new building the cross-linking of the different already existing research activities in the laboratory for nano and quantum engineering on a qualitatively new level and to create so further synergies for the individual working groups. The new building is conceived for point research in the area of the nano-technology. In the new laboratory is to be researched further interdisciplinary, because projects of the nano-technology can be led nearly in each case in co-operation of different fields to success. The LNQE covers 25 working groups from nature and engineering sciences. These working groups work on already today together nano-technological projects. Particularly because of the interdisciplinary adjustment a spatial proximity is that scientist inside and scientists importantly for the conversion of the research programs.With the new building of the laboratories (435 square meter), beginning now, a research pure area, which exhibits a very small dust particle portion in the room air (409 square meter), and work spaces for approximately 44 persons (509 square meter), exzellente possibilities for all involved scientist inside and scientists is created.
