A relevant member of our growth team is available to advise on any technical requirements and discuss the feasibility of your proposal. Please contact us by email: epitaxyfacility@sheffield.ac.
Applicants should submit a completed NEF Pump Priming Proforma outlining the strategic need for the work, the principle(s) to be demonstrated, the resources required, the time-scales involved and a statement indicating how a full EPSRC proposal should result from the successful conclusion of the short study/demonstration.
We look forward to receiving applications through the scheme.
