Bringing together 126 academic and industrial partners in 13 research and innovation projects and 1 coordination and support project, the Graphene Flagship initiative will continue to advance Europe’s strategic autonomy in technologies that rely on graphene and other 2D materials. The initiative, which builds on the previous 10-years of the Graphene Flagship, is funded by the European Commission’s Horizon Europe research and innovation programme.
The 2D-PL offers multi-project wafer (MPW) runs in which customer designs are included as dies on joint wafers where you can "share the mask to share the costs”. Currently there are three MPW offerings available for CMOS devices, biosensors and photonics applications. A 50% fee reduction is available for those willing to provide feedback to help the project improve its processes.
Recent research on various biomarkers for major depressive disorder (MDD) provide an opportunity to develop biosensors that can overcome the challenges faced by conventional diagnostic tools, MUNASET researchers say.
A comprehensive library of 2D materials for ink fabrication has been successfully established by the Graphene Flagship's 2D-PRINTABLE project, covering a broad range of material classes, including p-type and n-type semiconductors, metals, insulators, and functional materials such as ferroelectrics, multiferroics, superconductors, and magnetic 2D compounds.
At SEMICON Europa, the 2D Pilot Line (2D-PL) project will showcase its work driving the next phase of Europe’s semiconductor innovation by advancing the integration of 2D materials into photonics and electronics. This initiative focuses on providing end-to-end prototyping services for the integration of graphene and transition metal dichalcogenides (TMDCs) into established silicon-based platforms. The 2D-PL aims to bring 2D material (2DM) fabrication closer to industrial readiness by developing and validating processes in a FAB-relevant environment. Its module development is focused on photonic and electronic devices and circuits, addressing the needs of research organisations, SMEs, large companies, integrated device manufacturers (IDMs) and foundries across Europe.
Supported by the European Commission, Graphene Week stands at the forefront of cutting-edge research, innovation, and technology. As Europe's leading and longest-running graphene conference, it unites over 500 international experts and students to discuss key topics concerning graphene and 2D materials. This 21st edition of Graphene Week will be held in Porto, Portugal, 21-25 September 2026!
