Fraunhofer Institute Founds Epiwafer Supply Company
Employees of the Fraunhofer Institute for Applied Solid State Physics in Freiburg and the venture group of the Fraunhofer Society in Munich have founded EpiNova GmbH, a commercial start-up company, to supply advanced III-V epitaxial layer structures. EpiNova is focused on molecular beam epitaxial growth of III-V heterostructures and offers epitaxial wafers for PHEMTs and MESFETs on substrates up to 6-inch diameter, as well as MBE foundry service for lasers, infrared detectors and customized optoelectronic devices.
"EpiNova allows its customers to ramp up production quickly after the development of new products and bridges the gap between R&D and high volume production," says Dr. Martin Walther, CEO of EpiNova. The spin-off has rented lab and office space at the Fraunhofer Institute of Applied Solid State Physics in Freiburg and makes use of the excellent analytical services of the institute.
