SINGULUS TECHNOLOGIES Enters Cooperation with University of Mainz
Kahl am Main, December 4, 2012. - For the further expansion of their
research the Institute for Physics and the Institute for Inorganic
Chemistry and Analytic Chemistry at Johannes Gutenberg University of Mainz
together with the Technical University Kaiserslautern have chosen a TIMARIS
vacuum coating system for semiconductor technology from SINGULUS
TECHNOLOGIES, which is now launched under the product name ROTARIS. The
ROTARIS is a modularly built machine for precise coating in ultra-high
vacuum (up to 10-8 mbar). The already existing collaboration in the area of
magneto-electronics (EU project Magwire) is further extended. Amongst
others, the planned cooperation includes the research of the latest
magneto-electric materials, which are of utmost importance for MRAM memory
and sensors. The goal of the project is to establish an internationally
competitive and independent technology transfer and service center for new
materials (TT-DINEMA) in Rhineland-Palatinate for the provision of new
Heusler-based material concepts from the development of test samples up to
the demonstration of the principle industrial maturity. The service center
TT-DINEMA forms the base for innovative development projects in various
application areas, which range from solar technology to medical technology
and thermoelectrics, which can be utilized by small- and medium-sized
companies in particular. The service center is supported by the state
Rhineland-Palatine through the European Regional Development Fund (ERDF).
'Our vacuum coating machines increasingly form the basis for new
applications in the semiconductor industry with big market potential. In
the meantime, SINGULUS has become the leading supplier of this coating
technology, which is applied in the development and production of MRAM
wafers, for the manufacturing of write/read heads in the hard disc drive
sector and for other, especially magneto-electric semiconductor
applications,' comments Dr. Stefan Rinck, CEO of the SINGULUS TECHNOLOGIES
AG.
Due to promising talks about additional projects, the company expects
further agreements to be concluded in the coming months. SINGULUS'
nano-coating technology is thus increasingly appealing to the production of
MRAM memories and highly-specialized sensors. The current development
confirms the company's favorable expectation regarding this segment's
future.
Profile SINGULUS TECHNOLOGIES:
SINGULUS TECHNOLOGIES is the market leader in the business segment Optical
Disc for CD, DVD and Blu-ray Disc production equipment. In the Solar
segment, SINGULUS' goal is to attain a leading position in the silicon and
thin-film solar technology as a machine supplier as well as a development
partner and supplier of manufacturing equipment for new cell concepts. With
respect to production technology for CIGS/CIS thin-film solar cells,
SINGULUS is excellently positioned.
The activities in the division Semiconductor for vacuum deposition machines
are extensively strengthened to applications such as MRAM, sensors and
read/write elements. New application areas for vacuum deposition technology
are the focus of the further development.
