New NNF Entrance Policy Starting Feb 2021
The NNF will be updating entry policies starting February 1st, 2021. All users are responsible for reading and following all NNF Policies.
CoVid-19 Testing Requirements for NNF Access
Due to the continued threat of the Covid-19 virus, following winter break NC State will require proof of a negative COVID-19 PCR test for students, faculty and staff returning to live or work on campus (https://www.ncsu.edu/
NNF will also be adhering to the NC Department of Health and Human Services Guidelines, which echoes the CDC’s guidance that anyone who travels get tested 3-5 days after travel AND stay home for 7 days after travel (NCDHHS-Interim-Guidance-for-
Based on these recommendations, NNF will require that users who travel away from the Raleigh-Durham-Chapel Hill area to submit proof of a negative Covid-19 test taken within three to five days before a return NNF. We will also require that all users (NCSU students and external) submit a negative Covid-19 PCR test before re-entering the NNF in the new year.
Throughout the pandemic, NNF’s primary goal has been the safety of well-being of all staff and users. That focus will not change as we move into 2021.

The NCSU Nanofabrication Facility provides users with a broad range of nanofabrication capabilities to support a diverse set of projects.
The facility houses virtually all standard thin film processing tools. The facility serves as a melting pot for a community of top-notch researchers from academia, government labs and industry representing a variety of disciplines.
The vast majority of users prefer to come on-site for hands-on access to the facility. Users with well-defined projects can also have their work performed by our experienced staff.
