Research Building
- approx. 3800 m² Primary use area with approx. 345 m² Clean room area (ISO RKL 4-7) and areas with precision air conditioning (air temperature and humidity) for experimental work (e.g. production and characterization of components) under constant conditions in a dust-free environment
- highest standard of technical equipment, e.g. House-wide supply and disposal of special laboratory media (process and special gases, ultrapure and fully desalinated water, compressed air, vacuum, cooling water, neutralization of chemical laboratory waste water, recovery of gaseous helium for recycling in the liquefier at the Institute of Physics and later campus-wide reuse)
- Solid reinforced concrete skeleton with base plate (1.60 m) for vibration-free measurements
- clear architectural division into the southern span (laboratories), the middle span (communication and supply areas) and the northern span (offices), with the intermediary communication areas and two knowledge gardens spanning several floors intended to stimulate interdisciplinary cooperation.

Research Services
The Research Center MAIN, Central Scientific Institution at Chemnitz University of Technology, represents an interdisciplinary center for exploratory research into the material class of flexible nanostructured membranes ('nanomembranes'), unique in Europe and worldwide. The term 'nanomembrane' summarizes very thin materials structures (from a few micrometers down to atomic layers) that are characterized by advanced functionalities and high mechanical flexibility. Nanomembranes form the basis for new types of tiny, bendable, stretchable, malleable and, therefore, extremely adaptable electronic and photonic components, enabling new technical solutions in terms of increasingly autarkic, compact and powerful flexible systems created for the fields of mobile communication, sensor technology and biomedical engineering. Application examples are autarkic energy storage units for tiny and autonomously working sensor nodes, flexible sensor systems including elastic sensor matrices e.g. for artificial skins, spintronic components on a molecular basis, highly integrated optofluidic sensors for biological diagnostics, lab-on-chip systems, optoplasmonic transducers and electromechanical resonators at the nano-/micro interface (M/NEMS). Research Center MAIN bundles excellence research activities at Chemnitz University of Technology and forms a new research direction within the core competence "Materials and Intelligent Systems" of Chemnitz University of Technology.
