The document summarizes the nanotechnology ecosystem in Thessaloniki, Greece. It describes the Nanotechnology Lab LTFN & COPE-H Center at Aristotle University, which conducts research in organic and printed electronics, nanomedicine, and thin film technology. The Center has pilot and production lines for manufacturing OPVs and OLEDs using roll-to-roll and organic vapor phase deposition processes. It also has in-line metrology tools like inkjet printers, lasers, and sensors for quality control. The document further discusses the NANONET research network and HOPE-A association that support the nanotechnology field in Thessaloniki.
