Developing innovative technology solutions and bringing them to application - that is our goal at the Fraunhofer Institute for Photonic Microsystems IPMS.

Developing innovative technology solutions and bringing them to application – that is our goal at the Fraunhofer Institute for Photonic Microsystems IPMS.
In our »Center Nanoelectronic Technologies« (CNT) division, research is conducted on 300‑mm wafers for microchip manufacturers, suppliers, equipment manufacturers, and R&D partners in cleanroom and laboratory facilities at the "An der Bartlake" site. The CNT offers process and technology development as well as services at the Ultra Large Scale Integration (ULSI) level in the FEoL and BEoL areas for various CMOS technology nodes.
We at the »Interconnect Technologies« group are working on a key topic for current and future microchip manufacturing. Our focus is particularly on BEoL copper metallization. Current research topics include novel materials (e.g., cobalt, indium), as well as the optimization and analysis of existing production processes and the integration of new functionalities. All of these research topics have a direct impact on our processes and process structures. Join us starting in February 2027 to help us determine the significance and implications of this work.
