2D-EPL multi-project wafer run 3


EU Funded

The 2D-EPL's third MPW run is mainly intended towards electronics but can also include sensor devices (e.g. Hall sensor, but via opening on graphene is not in the scope of this run) and will be provided by AMO GmbH. The design of the device can be adjusted within the specifications. The offered device structure is a GFET (Fig. 1) consisting of the following fabrication steps:

  • Back gate
  • Dielectric deposition & vias opening
  • Fabrication of adhesion pads
  • Wafer scale graphene transfer & patterning
  • Top contacts fabrication
  • Encapsulation & vias opening (not on top of graphene)

Timeline

Application Phase: 1 April– 18 June 2023

Final Layout Submission and PO: 25 June 2023

MPW Run 3: 1 October – 30 November 2023

Delivery: 1 December 2023 – 21 January 2024

  • During the application phase, interested clients can contact us via the contact form and receive further information about the run in a first meeting.
  • Final Layout Submission and PO must be received by 25 June.
  • The chips are expected to be delivered in December 2023.

Pricing

  • 1300€ set price for four dies with identical design (1x1 cm²)
  • 250€ for each additional die with identical design 

 

  This MPW run is now closed. Stay tuned for our next run, opening soon.
