INFRACHIP – An EU initiative to grant user access to state-of-the-art cleanroom facilities
Do you have an idea for a new high-tech product but lack the in-house technology to develop a prototype? INFRACHIP could be the solution you are looking for! INFRACHIP is an initiative funded by the European Union to finance user access to state-of-the-art cleanroom facilities distributed all over Europe, supporting pathfinding research in semiconductor technology. […]
Institutional visit to Piedmont
Prof. Max Lemme has visited Piedmont as part of an industry/academic delegation headed by Mona Neubaur, Minister for Economic Affairs, Industry, Climate Action and Energy of North-Rhine Westphalia (NRW). The visit, initiated by Piedmont’s councilor for industry, Andrea Tronzano, had the aim of contributing to developing common relationships and policies in the microelectronics sector […]
AttoSwitch: towards nanoscale transistors with extremely low energy consumption
AMO GmbH is one of the six members of AttoSwitch, a Horizon Europe project that aims at developing ultra-energy-efficient transistors for logic and high-frequency analog integrated chips by building on the unique properties of Dirac semimetals. Information and communication technologies are having an increasing impact on global energy demand, with forecasts indicating that they […]
First demonstration of a CMOS inverter based on TMDCs on a flexible substrate
Agata Piacentini and coworkers have demonstrated the first CMOS inverter based on transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDC) on a flexible substrate, using two distinct TMDC materials, MoS2 and WSe2. The team has successfully fabricated NMOS FETs based on CVD-MoS2 and PMOS FETs based on MOCVD-WSe2 on a flexible foil substrate. The FETs exhibited almost mirror-symmetric transfer […]
