First SPIDAR chips take shape in the cleanroom
Work in SPIDAR’s fabrication work package is in full swing. Following the arrival of our first GaAs epitaxial wafers earlier this year, the team has been developing the core fabrication processes for our photonic integrated circuits (PICs) in the Micronova cleanroom at Aalto University. Process development is the unglamorous but essential foundation of any new…
