One partner, three ways to build

MEMS Foundry, Wafer Services, and Design Under One Roof

MEMS Foundry Services

Engineering depth with production-grade fabrication, whether you arrive with a mature process to transfer or a concept that still needs development.

  • Custom MEMS device and sensor fabrication
  • Process development and prototyping
  • Photonics and specialty semiconductor integration
  • Scale-up from first wafers to volume

Wafer Services

Need specific films rather than a full device build? Your substrates run on the same production line as our MEMS foundry, to the same quality standards.

See all wafer services →

MEMS Design Services

Device layout, simulation, and process flow development connected directly to a working fab. Every design is foundry-informed from the start, so it translates into fabrication with fewer iteration cycles — and you keep the flexibility to fabricate with us or at the foundry of your choice.

Three Ways to Work with Our Design Team

Engage us for stand-alone design, with device layout, mask design, and process guidance you can take to any fab. Add technology transfer, and we work directly with your chosen foundry to move the design and process flow into manufacturing. Or go design and fabricate, moving straight from layout into prototype wafers on our own line for the fastest path from concept to silicon.

However you engage, you retain full ownership of your designs and data. Learn more about our MEMS design services.

Who we work with

Serving the Full Spectrum, from Academia to Large Companies

Academia comes to us for emerging tech R&D and proof of concept. Startups run R&D and small-batch device fabrication. Midsize companies optimize processes and move into pilot production. Large companies bring product development and focused R&D projects. Wherever you are on that curve, you work directly with the engineers running your wafers.

Read our customer case studies to see the partnership in action.

Wafer services

Production-Grade Films on Your Wafers

Every wafer service runs on the same production line as our MEMS foundry: wet and dry thermal oxidation, LPCVD silicon nitride, undoped polysilicon, PECVD films, and PVD metal and dielectric films. Send us your substrates, or start from ours, and get film quality backed by the process control of a working device fab.

In stock now

Ready-to-Ship Silicon Wafers

Skip procurement delays with silicon wafers and pre-processed substrates from our in-house inventory. Choose bare wafers for a clean starting point, or wafers with thermal oxide, LPCVD or PECVD films, polysilicon, or silicon nitride already deposited, all produced with the same process controls as our foundry line.
