« An
open access distributed facility with the legal status of a European Research Infrastructure Consortium (
ERIC), made up of 3 to 6 centers characterized by specific scientific embedding and local synergies with nearby Large Scale Facilities (LSFs) but providing a
unique access portal so as to be an integrated laboratory environment for the development of advanced nanoscience with atomic precision fabrication and metrology.

« Maximum
exploitation of Large Scale Facilities (LSFs) by nano-oriented scientific communities by (a) providing a strategic access for Fine Analysis to a wider community of users and (b)
raising the standards in sample preparation, definition and characterization for the most advanced fine analysis tools including nanobeams and ultra short pulses of X-ray and UV as well as neutron pulses.

« A
common metrology and a
widespread technological platform for advanced nanofabrication, synthesis and characterization of nanostructures, available to all scientific and technological communities so as to (a) provide a push forward in the challenge of
atomic precision manufacturing and (b) shift the scientific competition towards ideas and intellectual skills rather than among different technological and financial capabilities of research groups around Europe.

« The first
Nanoscience Repository of molecular data for functional and complex materials and protocols for synthesis and metrology of nanostructured systems so as to make the results of nanoscience centers more directly suitable for specific applications developed by technology districts as well as for next generation products manufactured by industries and SMEs. Full exploitation of
emerging e-infrastructures to achieve high impact and capillarity in
making nanoscience outcome promptly available to society.

Consultation on possible topics for future activities for integrating and opening existing national research infrastructures
NANOSCIENCE FACILITIES WITH DIRECT INTEGRATION OF FINE ANALYSIS METHODS BASED ON RADIATION SOURCES
An Expression of Interest has been submitted for a TOPIC addressing the need for integrating nanoscale design, growth, fabrication and analysis into a pan-European distributed infrastructure that will offer a unique access to the most advanced tools and techniques typically located in independent specialized facilities.
NFFA Design Study
THE NFFA SUMMARY BOOKLET
The NFFA Design Study conclusions are condensed in the booklet.
NFFA will develop the demonstator phase in 2013 and will pursue new initiatives that will develop the project in view of H2020.
