For Users

The CNM user program provides access to equipment and technical expertise and is open to academia, industry, government agencies and research institutes worldwide. Access is obtained via brief peer-reviewed proposals with no charge for users who intend to publish their results. Access is also available on a cost-recovery basis for proprietary research that is not intended for publication. Prospective users are encouraged to contact CNM staff members to learn more about the science and capabilities at the CNM.
