GRENOBLE, France –May 7, 2012 – CEA-Leti and III-V lab, a joint lab of Alcatel-Lucent Bell Labs France, Thales Research and Technology and CEA Leti, today reports successful results after the first year of their collaborative research programme. The enlarged partnership in the III-V lab is developing researches for applications in telecoms, industrial control, environmental testing, defence, security. The new public-private partnership combines the advantages of III-V semiconductor and silicon technologies to open up new research perspectives and applications.

In an effort to bring the performance benefits of III-V components on to silicon CMOS platforms, the partnership leverages the different … Read More → "CEA-Leti and III-V lab reports significant results after one year of collaborative research programme"

Dresde, Espoo, Grenoble, Neuchâtel – May 5, 2012 – The Heterogeneous Technology Alliance (HTA), a team of leading European technology institutes (VTT, Fraunhofer, CSEM and CEA-Leti) today announced that it strongly contributes to develop high-performance organic electronic circuits. It is possible due to their extensive efforts in processing, circuit design, modelling, and characterisation.

So far the appearance of organic thin film transistors (OTFTs) and circuits in industrial products has been limited. The main obstacle for substantial market penetration of such organic electronic components has been the inability to achieve the necessary device performance combined with the necessary high-volume production methods. … Read More → "The Europe’s Heterogeneous Technology Alliance (HTA) has the ambition to revolutionize the organic electronic circuits production"
