Birck Nanotechnology Center Recharge Rates.

Effective June 1, 2023.

Rate Types

INT: Internal (Subsidized)

ENP: External Non‐Profit, Academic, Governmental, and Indiana Small Business

EFP: External For‐Profit

Facilities and Administrative (F&A) costs are included in listed external prices.

Lab Access Charges

Entering BRK labs incurs daily charges to pay for consumables and staff support.

The Birck Lab Fee is charged for any day of lab entry into any BRK lab/galley.
An additional surcharge also applies depending on the type of lab.
If labs of different types are entered, multiple surcharges may be incurred.

Each fee/surcharge is daily: charged up to once per calendar day, per user, regardless of the number of entries or different labs of that type entered.

Monthly Lab Access Cap (Internal Users): Lab fees/surcharges are subsidized by BNC after paying 15 days per month (per user, per account, per fee/surcharge).
