The Nanophotonics Technology Center (NTC), established in 2005 at the Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV), is a leading research institute dedicated to advancing nanophotonic science and technology. Our mission encompasses both pioneering fundamental research and translating discoveries into innovative materials, devices, and systems across various applications. NTC UPV Our multidisciplinary team of over 50 professionals—including UPV professors, post-doctoral researchers, clean-room technicians, and PhD students—engages in diverse research areas such as telecommunications, data communications, computing, biosensing, space exploration, and photovoltaics. NTC UPV The NTC boasts state-of-the-art facilities, notably a 500 m² clean room dedicated to the fabrication of nanophotonic structures and devices using silicon-compatible technology. This clean room is recognized as part of Spain's Singular Scientific and Technical Infrastructure (ICTS) within the Micro and Nanomanufacturing Clean Room Network (MICRONANOFABS). UPV Our research is organized into specialized areas, including: Nanophotonics for Health Care and Sensing: Focusing on biophotonics and photonic technologies for applied analytics., Nanophotonics for Communications: Encompassing optical networks, photonic systems, integrated devices, and applications., Nanophotonics for Energy: Exploring artificial materials, metasurfaces, novel nanomaterials, and photonics for photovoltaics. Through our commitment to innovation and technology transfer, the NTC actively collaborates with industry partners to develop cutting-edge solutions that address current and future challenges.
