Abstract:

Graphenea aims to develop the potential of graphene for electronic systems by means of combining large-scale graphene synthesis and conventional CMOS technology into an industrial compatible process. GRAPHENEA is scaling up graphene production for semiconductor industry, developing the quality control equipment and demonstrating the technology in real devices: UV LEDs, health monitoring, night vision, wifi receivers, hall sensors, among others

1. Graphene on 200mm wafers by Graphenea

The CMOS compatible graphene product will be large scale 200mm, with low metal contamination levels and with potential for large production volume in order to obtain cost competitive rates (<1 €/cm2). The industrial production method should be able to produce uniform, large scale/high performance graphene in high yields and reliable manner.

Our product main objectives are:

- Diffusion of technology to foundries (semiconductor factories)
- Meet industry demand of a demonstrator made with actually compatible CMOS processes
- Deliver very clear cost/performance advantage for the semiconductor industry to justify investments in new machinery or materials
