Located at the heart of the Compound Semiconductor Cluster, South Wales
NetZero Semiconductors is ideally located at the heart of the world's first compound semiconductor cluster in South Wales, UK. The region has a 45 year history of both research and manufacturing of advanced semiconductors which includes leading academic institutions (Cardiff & Swansea Universities), applied research (CSA Catapult) and multi-national companies (Vishay, IQE, Microchip & KLA). The region contains an experienced and rapidly growing talent pool and a stream of newly qualified experts on semiconductor technologies.
​
NetZero Semiconductors will continue to participate in collaborative R&D projects and other initiatives with key members, helping to develop proprietary knowledge that is used to keep the company at the forefront of the industry.
Working With the Best Clients and Partners
Innovation Partners
Swansea University
NetZero Semiconductors has signed a MoU to co-develop innovative new processes and components for power electronics. The Centre of Integrative Semiconductor Materials (CISM) is a founding member of the compound semiconductor cluster and recently opened a new development fab with world-class capabilities and equipment.
Cardiff University
Cardiff University's Institute of Compound Semiconductors is central to the compound semiconductor cluster and will be a partner in collaborative R&D projects and co-development of new processes. Cardiff brings unique expertise in optical devices based on compound semiconductors.
Ohio State University
The Ohio State University is leading a multi-institutional, interdisciplinary education and research center to advance the fabrication and development of semiconductors and next-generation device technologies. The new Center for Advanced Semiconductor Fabrication Research and Education (CAFE) lays the foundation for a sustained, highly skilled and diverse semiconductor manufacturing workforce by developing comprehensive experiential learning frameworks for both graduate and undergraduate students, all while paving the way for leading-edge device technologies through state-of-the-art research.
Quantum NIL
Quantum NIL are leaders in Nanoimprint lithography (NIL), a technique that enables the replication of sub-micrometric fine features at wafer level and can be ideally applied onto any substrates. It is viewed as an alterative production solution compared with E-beam and EUV lithography. It has particular application in photonic and opto-electronic devices to create various structures.
