Three new thematic laboratories have been established as an important outcome of the studies conducted by EFSUN, the Center of Excellence for Functional Surfaces and Interfaces, within the Faculty of Engineering and Natural Sciences of Sabancı University.
These laboratories will support research in critical areas such as materials science, nanotechnology, energy storage, and thermal management, strengthen integration with industry, increase scientific collaborations and contribute to the development of next-generation technologies.
The established thematic laboratories are as follows:
🔹 Thin Film Technologies Laboratory
🔹 Functional Smart Surfaces, Interfaces, and Thermal Management Laboratory
🔹 Energy Materials and Storage - Advanced Spectroscopic Characterization Laboratory
This new structure will increase EFSUN’s visibility and recognition in the national and international arena, while enabling both interdisciplinary and more focused research. Thus, it will provide significant opportunities for establishing consortia, strengthening collaborations and expanding academic-industry networks in both national and international research projects and industry-focused projects.
This important stage has been reached thanks to the contributions of researchers, students, collaborators, supporters, and the Sabancı University administration. For more detailed information about the newly established thematic laboratories and to establish collaborations, EFSUN Research Center Director Emre Erdem can be contacted.
