Graphenea
Graphenea leverages the unique properties of graphene to allow prototyping and developing graphene-based solid-state biosensing devices for liquid samples measurements. At only one atom thick, graphene behaves unlike any conventional semiconductor: it supports device physics that silicon, germanium and other compound materials cannot reach.
Graphenea builds its graphene devices with the same wafer-scale manufacturing techniques used across the semiconductor industry. Two things follow from owning the fabrication process end-to-end. First, Graphenea can guarantee performance metrics on every run, so devices arrive meeting the customer's specification rather than a best effort. Second, because the manufacturing cycle is so much shorter than silicon's, it draws far less water, uses fewer process gases, and consumes less of the other chemicals and materials a longer process would require – which adds up to a meaningfully smaller carbon footprint per device.

IMPORTANT DATES
If you are interested in any of our capabilities, please contact us at 2DPL@graphene-flagship.eu. Whether you are exploring a new concept or have a specific process in mind, our team can help assess your project's feasibility, discuss technical requirements, and identify the most appropriate fabrication route.
ACCESS
Both the PDK and the fabrication services are enabled following the signature of the Graphenea Non-Disclosure Agreement (NDA). The PDK is available free of charge to interested parties. For more information or to request access to the services, please contact 2DPL@graphene-flagship.eu.
This run is now closedThis MPW run is tailored for liquid sample measurements, offering features particularly suited for biosensing and liquid biopsies. The passivated contacts prevent large leakage currents and device degradation upon contact with the liquid analyte, enabling measurements in saline solutions, as well as biological fluids like blood, plasma, saliva, and sweat.

The 2D-PL Support Programme lowers the obstacles for researchers and companies wanting to join our multi-project wafer (MPW) runs. Selected participants can receive a reduction of up to 50% off the MPW fee in exchange for providing feedback on the received devices in the form of a short interview with the hosting pilot line. Your feedback helps us improve future runs.
