We are accustomed to the use of electricity in every day life, this is based on the flow of electrons through materials which have a high conductivity such as metals. At low temperatures the laws of quantum mechanics prevail and now an electron does not behave as a particle but rather as a wave, which reflects the probability of finding an electron in a particular place. An entirely new range of phenomena flow from this change in the physics and this is most pronounced in very small devices, called nanostructures. The purpose of this grant is to enable the most advanced nanostructures to be fabricated and new physical phenomena to be sought in them. In addition to the new physics that will be found, new methods of transmitting and handling data will emerge, which will be of great benefit to both existing and future industries yet to be born.

我们习惯于在日常生活中使用电力，这是基于电子通过具有高电导率（例如金属）的材料流动的。在低温下，量子力学的定律占上风，现在电子不是作为粒子的行为，而是作为波浪，这反映了在特定位置找到电子的可能性。物理学变化的全新现象范围是全新的现象，这在很小的设备（称为纳米结构）中最为明显。这笔赠款的目的是使最先进的纳米结构被捏造，并在其中寻求新的物理现象。除了发现新的物理学外，还将出现新的传输和处理数据方法，这对尚未诞生的现有行业和未来行业都有很大的好处。
