Fraunhofer Institute for Photonic Microsystems

file

The Fraunhofer IPMS is dedicated to applied research and development at the highest international level in the fields of photonic microsystems, microsystems technologies, nanoelectronic technologies and wireless microsystems.

Innovative processes and products which are based upon our various technologies can be found in all large markets – such as information and communication technologies, consumer products, automobile technology, semiconductor technology, measurement and medical technology.

  • Photonic & Wireless Microsystems

    Regarding micromechanical and photonic microsystems we offer complete solutions: From conception to component right up to complete systems. This includes sample and pilot production in our 1500 m² (15,000 ft²) clean room (ISO 14644-1 class 4) with qualified processes. We are a competent partner for research, development and pilot fabrication of semiconductor and microsystem devices, integrated sensors and actuators as well as consulting services.

  • Nanoelectronic Technologies

    The business unit CNT (Center Nanoelectronic Technologies) provides services in the field of nano and microelectronics and is focussing on the certification of processes and materials on 300 mm wafers. More than 40 tools and a clean room (ISO 14644-1 class 6) are available for the integration of customer processes and subnanometer characterization. Current research topics inlclude Nanopatterning, High-k Devices, Copper metallization of semiconductor interconnects and Non-volatile memories (NVM).
