IMT-MINAFAB

Overview

IMT Bucharest is a Romanian National Institute for R&D in Microtechnologies (www.imt.ro) providing the first “open” centre in micro-and nanotechnologies in Eastern Europe (2009), the so- called IMT centre for MIcro-and NAnoFABbrication (IMT-MINAFAB, www.imt.ro/MINAFAB). IMT-MINAFAB is in fact just an interface with customers (including SMEs): the services are provided by researchers and engineers from various departments. The mode of operation is clearly illustrated by TGE-PLAT, a 3 million euro project financed by structural funding (2016-2021), This is a project dedicated to knowledge transfer from IMT to Romanian companies, including consultancy, technological & scientific services, R&D at demand, etc. The project is explicitly based on the IMT expertise in there KETs (micro-and nanoelectronics, micro-and nanophotonics, nanotechnology) which are correlated (integrated) to a certain extent. Some success stories are displayed at www.imt.ro/partner/index.htm. IMT Bucharest (through IMT-MINAFAB) is partner in… - Laboratories and equipment for fabrication, characterization
- Micro-Nanophotonics Laboratory  (modeling, simulation, CAD, analysis,  characterization, testing)
- Micromachined structures, microwave circuits and devices Laboratory (RF-MEMS)
. NATIONAL INSTITUTE FOR RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT IN MICROTECHNOLOGIES - IMT BUCHAREST

The IMT Support Centre for MIcro- and NAnoFABrication (IMT-MINAFAB) at the National Institute for R&D in Microtechnologies (IMT Bucharest) is an experimental facility - in operation since 2009 - covering the full development cycle for micro- and nano systems and devices: design-modeling-simulation, basic and advanced processing, complex characterization, device/system integration, and reliability testing. It consists of clean room and grey room areas (ISO 6&5 - 200 sqm, ISO7 - 120 sqm, ISO 8 - 300 sqm) and specialized labs (60 sqm), equipped with state of the art equipments (worth ~9Meuro), including a mask shop, micro- and nanolithography, plasma-based processing and depositions, e-beam depositions, high level characterization etc. The centre is open to multidisciplinary research, education and industry cooperation and offers direct and indirect access to basic or complex services for academic and industrial users….
