234 Appendix C. European Roundtable Discussions Reports from Funding Agencies of Sweden In addition to presentations overviewing consortia efforts, four presentations were given by managers from four different Swedish funding agencies describing nanoscale science support in their respective agencies. Summaries of these presentations follow. NUTEK Dr. H. Hakansson stated that NUTEK budgets are being reduced to about SKr. 26 million for 1998, whereas over 50 applications have been received that request support in the amount of SKr. 150 million. NUTEK nanoscale program areas are (a) active materials and nanofunctional materials; (b) microsystems technology; and (c) peripherals. Natural Sciences Research Council (NFR) The Natural Sciences Research Council presentation by Dr. U. Karlsson emphasized that the NFR primarily supports basic research. The budget for physics is about SKr. 82.5 million, of which about 25% is for condensed matter physics. It was estimated that about 20-30% of the total NFR chemistry and physics budget supports nanoscale science initiatives, continuing the NFR history of strongly supporting nanoscale science efforts. It supports the Materials Science Consortia, of which the Nanometer Structure Consortium and the Clusters and Ultrafine Particles Consortium are part, and it also supports the National Facility at Göteborg University, which consists in part of experimental physics groups from Lund, Göteborg, Uppsala, Stockholm, and Umea Universities. Interestingly, the NFR also supports “senior research positions.” At present it provides support for positions in the following areas: low dimension structures, mesoscopic physics, surface chemistry, and theory (4 positions). Two other positions are presently under consideration, one in cluster chemistry and another in the physics of small structures. Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research (SSF) The Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research is a relatively new organization, created in January 1994 with a SKr. 6 billion budget. As described by Dr. Marika Mikes-Lindback, the goal of the foundation is to support scientific, technical, and medical research. One objective is to build up competence in a field and then get companies founded to commercialize products in that field. Projects are 100%-funded by SSF. There are six main
Appendix C. European Roundtable Discussions 235 programs, of which five are vertically oriented and one (Materials) is horizontally oriented. Two programs have large components of nanoscale science and technology: Interdisciplinary Materials Research Consortia, receives about SKr. 42 million in support, about 25% of that for projects involving nanoscience. Table C.1 lists the Interdisciplinary Materials Research Consortia, together with their objectives and 1998 funding levels. TABLE C.1.

This program is being established because Sweden believes that the microelectronics area is highly strategic for modern society and affects all sectors of industry as well as the information society generally. Its primary goal appears to be to open the pipeline to a continual supply of
