Device Fabrication Facility

Device Fabrication (Cleanroom)

Designed to have CMOS processing technologies to serve as a key enabler towards personalized healthcare and preemptive medicine. Specifically, we aim to develop smart and miniature devices, circuits and systems with biomedical applications such as biosensing, DNA sequencing and smart implanting. This facility supports both discovery-based research and translational research that leads to the development of new research tools for life sciences.

  • CHA Mark 50 Ebeam Evaporator

    CHA Mark 50 Systems have become the industry standard for high vacuum deposition systems. Simplicity in design, ease of operation and unmatched reliability make the Mark 50 an excellent choice for a wide range of applications. The Mark 50's horizontal 32" by 32" water-cooled cylindrical chamber simplifies loading and unloading. The unique slide down front door minimizes floor space requirements and a rear door offers easy chamber access from behind for convenient through the wall mounting. SECS/GEM and CE compliant.
