This seminar will provide a comprehensive overview of the integration workflows adopted by the 2D Pilot Line’s host partners for the fabrication of 2D materials-based electronics and photonics devices. Experts from Graphenea, AMO GmbH, imec, IHP and VTT will illustrate how their facilities enable 2D materials integration by shedding light on the complete device lifecycle, from design conception and CAD implementation to tape-out file creation and testing. Particular focus will be dedicated to graphene photonic devices, manufactured in two 200 mm CMOS-compatible pilot lines, and their key processing stages, such as growth, passivation and contacting.
Beyond the device fabrication itself, partners will delve into the development of dedicated process design kits (PDKs) and the implementation of the multi-project wafer (MPW) approach, essential for enabling the systematic design and scalable integration of 2DM-based devices within a foundry-compatible platform.
Join us from 2–4 November 2026 for a three-day hands-on training on design practices for 2D material-based photonic integrated circuits (PICs) on KLayout. This course will guide participants from fundamental concepts and design tools to more advanced implementations and exercises for photonic device architectures using our 2D-PL partners’ four diverse PDKs. The event will be held at imec in Leuven, Belgium, and carried out by expert designers involved in the EU-funded project 2D-PL, a part of the Graphene Flagship initiative, and co-hosted by EUROPRACTICE.
