Today, imec and Holst Centre (set up by imec and TNO) are demonstrating the most advanced smart garment to date at the Imec Technology Forum (ITF) in Brussels. The smart t-shirt measures a highly accurate electrocardiogram (ECG), recognizes activity and calculates energy expenditure in an unobtrusive way. The smart t-shirt allows for maximum user comfort and natural movement.
At this week’s VLSI 2015 Symposium in Kyoto (Japan), imec reported new results on nanowire FETs and quantum-well FinFETs towards post-FinFET multi-gate device solutions.
Latin American satellite operator Agencia Boliviana Espacial (ABE, Bolivian Space Agency) and Newtec, a specialist in designing, developing and manufacturing equipment and technologies for satellite communications, today announced the successful completion of a trial campaign – which transmitted more than 500Mbps over 120MHz on Ka-band.
Liesbet Van der Perre, directeur bij imec academy en Professor aan de KU Leuven, ontving verleden vrijdag ( 29 mei 2015) in het Zweedse Lund een eredoctoraat voor haar belangrijke wetenschappelijk bijdrage aan de ontwikkeling van draadloze communicatietechnologieën en haar bijzondere inzet om door samenwerking binnen Europa, tussen universiteiten, onderzoeksinstellingen en de industrie, innovatie te stimuleren en nieuwe generaties radiotechnologie te ontwikkelen.
FUJIFILM Corporation (President: Shigehiro Nakajima) (hereafter, “Fujifilm”) and nano-electronics research institute, imec (CEO: Luc Van den hove), have demonstrated full-color organic light-emitting diodes (OLED)*1 by using their jointly-developed photoresist technology*2 for organic semiconductors, a technology that enables submicron*3patterning. This breakthrough result paves the way to producing high-resolution and large organic Electroluminescent (EL) displays and establishing cost-competitive manufacturing methods.
Newtec, a specialist in designing, developing and manufacturing equipment and technologies for satellite communications, today announced global satellite operator ABS has selected Newtec Dialog® to launch next generation VSAT and data services.
Newtec, a specialist in designing, developing and manufacturing equipment and technologies for satellite communications, today announced the successful completion of a trial campaign for its Newtec Dialog® multiservice platform and Mx-DMA™ technology at Vodafone Innovation Park Lab in Germany.
Het Leuvense nano-elektronica onderzoekscentrum imec en het Amerikaanse Johns Hopkins University gaan samen met Marc Coucke, Michel Akkermans en de Vlaamse investeringsmaatschappij PMV, miDiagnostics oprichten voor de ontwikkeling van miLab.
Today, at the IEEE IITC conference, nano-electronics research center imec and Tokyo Electron Limited (TEL) presented a direct Cu etch scheme for patterning Cu interconnects. The new scheme has great potential to overcome resistivity and reliability issues that occur while scaling conventional Cu damascene interconnects for advanced nodes.
During the IEEE IITC conference in Grenoble, the nanoelectronics research center imec and Lam Research Corporation today presented a novel bottom-up prefill technique for vias and contacts. The technique, based on Electroless Deposition (ELD) of Cobalt (Co) is a highly selective method resulting in void-free filling of via and contact holes. Potentially increasing the circuit performance, it is a promising path to scaling advanced interconnects and enabling future logic and DRAM nodes at the 7 nm node and below.
