Now, CNM wishes to return the favor by soliciting proposals from APS users who could benefit from such offerings as a world-class nanofabrication facility, an unparalleled suite of ultrahigh-vacuum scanning-tunneling microscopes (STM) with various near-field probes, diverse synthesis tools, femtosecond to microsecond transient absorption/emission spectroscopy from the UV to the nIR and beyond to THz, and a wide variety of optical and electron microscopes, to name a few.
The CNM also offers an extensive theory and modeling component to complement your research. Joint APS/CNM capabilities include the Hard X-ray Nanoprobe at APS Sector 26, Rheo-XPCS at APS Sector 8-ID, and a developing synchrotron x-ray STM at APS Sector 4.
CNM's proposal deadlines are the same as for APS; more information can be found at: http://www.anl.gov/cnm/user-information/call-proposals.

The Center for Nanoscale Materials is one of the five DOE Nanoscale Science Research Centers, premier national user facilities for interdisciplinary research at the nanoscale supported by the DOE Office of Science. Together the NSRCs comprise a suite of complementary facilities that provide researchers with state-of-the-art capabilities to fabricate, process, characterize and model nanoscale materials, and constitute the largest infrastructure investment of the National Nanotechnology Initiative. The NSRCs are located at DOE's Argonne, Brookhaven, Lawrence Berkeley, Oak Ridge, Sandia and Los Alamos National Laboratories.

The Advanced Photon Source is a U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science User Facility operated for the U.S. Department of Energy Office of Science by Argonne National Laboratory under Contract No. DE-AC02-06CH11357.
Argonne National Laboratory seeks solutions to pressing national problems in science and technology. The nation's first national laboratory, Argonne conducts leading-edge basic and applied scientific research in virtually every scientific discipline. Argonne researchers work closely with researchers from hundreds of companies, universities, and federal, state and municipal agencies to help them solve their specific problems, advance America's scientific leadership and prepare the nation for a better future. With employees from more than 60 nations, Argonne is managed by UChicago Argonne, LLC for the U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Science.
The U.S. Department of Energy's Office of Science is the single largest supporter of basic research in the physical sciences in the United States and is working to address some of the most pressing challenges of our time. For more information, visit the Office of Science website.
