FabNS is a deep-tech company dedicated to designing and manufacturing scientific-grade instrumentation for research and industrial applications. Our flagship product, the Porto System, is a state-of-the-art nanoscope based on Tip-Enhanced Raman Spectroscopy (TERS). It enables precise optical characterization of nanostructures, delivering unparalleled resolution and spectral signal enhancement.

Beyond hardware, FabNS provides innovative software solutions for scientific data analysis and specialized characterization services tailored for industrial R&D. Our PortoFlow software transforms hyperspectral analysis with its intuitive dataflow paradigm, empowering researchers to employ advanced methods—including PCA, ICA, Curve Fitting, Fuzzy k-means, Spectral Unmixing, and more—without the need for coding expertise.

As a spin-off from the Federal University of Minas Gerais (UFMG, Brazil), FabNS bridges academic expertise with industry innovation. Our technologies have made a global impact, with the Porto nanoscope playing a pivotal role in groundbreaking research, such as advanced materials research in a Nature cover article (Nature, Volume 590, Pages 405–409, 2021).
