The core of our materials development is our unique plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition equipment. Conventional materials processed include:
-Silicon Oxide
-Silicon Nitride
-Amorphous Silicon
- Porous Silicon
Our molecular engineering permits the development of application specific materials such as:
- Selective wetting silicon nanocomposites
-Variable In Plane Index of Refraction nanocomposites with an ability to produce index of refraction from less than 1.5 to over 2.7 for photonic and optical applications
- Variable dielectric constant quantum dot nanocomposites
- Long term environmentally stable poled polymers for electro-optic applications
Applications addressed to date are:
- Rel Seal coating of silicon nitride to completed microelectronic assemblies to provide environmental robustness and reliability without hermetic packaging
- VIPIR and poled plasma polymers for optical chip to chip interconnect
- Monolithic integration of photonic and microelectronic devices. Various hjgh density photonic sensors are fabricated on completed CMOS devices for low noise signal processing
