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. […]
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 […]
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 […]
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 […]
One of the big selling points of two-dimensional (2D) materials is their self-passivated nature, which allows them to be deposited on any substrate and opens up new possibilities for three-dimensional material stacks. The downside is their weak adhesion to the substrate, which can be a source of device instability. Quantifying the adhesion of 2D materials […]
More than 100 participants attended the workshop “2D Materials for Future Electronics” organized by AMO GmbH in cooperation with the Aachen Graphene & 2D Materials Center, the RWTH Aachen and the University of Wuppertal on February 19 and 20 in Aachen, Germany. The aim of the workshop was to discuss the opportunities offered by 2D […]
Advanced applications such as smart patches and electronic skin have created the need for strain sensors that are not only sensitive and flexible, but also skin- and eco-friendly, and ideally self-healing, i.e. able to recover their sensing performance after damage. A successful strategy for implementing self-healing strain sensors is to combine a polymer with good […]
On Friday, January 26, 2024, the Rector’s Office at RWTH named two new RWTH Fellows: Prof. Max C. Lemme, head of the Chair of Electronic Devices (ELD) and CEO of AMO GmbH, and Prof. Harald Müller, head of the Department of Medieval History. With this title, RWTH honors professors who have distinguished themselves in […]
AMO GmbH and the Aachen Graphene & 2D Materials Center are organizing a two-day workshop on “2D Materials for Future Electronics”, in cooperation with RWTH Aachen University and the University of Wuppertal. The workshop will take place on February 19-20, 2024 in the scenic lecture halls of the SuperC building, in Aachen. The scope of […]
Researchers at AMO GmbH and the Chair of Electronic Devices at RWTH Aachen University have implemented a novel class of pinholes to increase the spatial uniformity of laser beams and demonstrated their efficiency in improving the quality of laser interference lithography gratings. Laser interference lithography is a cost-effective nanofabrication technique widely used in semiconductor manufacturing […]
