NTU Singapore Orders AIXTRON Black Magic System for High Frequency Electronics CNT Project

AIXTRON SE today announced that Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, has procured an AIXTRON 2-inch Black Magic PECVD system. NTU researchers will be using the system for the preparation of carbon nanotubes (CNT) and graphene for high frequency electronic devices. The turnkey system was installed and commissioned by the local AIXTRON service and support team in the Nanoelectronics Laboratory, School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, NTU.

Prof. Beng Kang Tay, comments: “Our new project involves the research and development of new types of materials for high frequency electronics. In particular, we plan to develop new interconnect and similar technologies for these devices using structures based on CNT, graphene and other carbon materials. These unique functional materials have great promise for the manufacture of RF electronic devices for advanced communications and networks. As our work primarily focuses on the development of latest applications and devices, we needed a system that is flexible, reliable and ergonomic, whilst providing simultaneously highest quality reproducible thin films. Our stringent requirements stem from the fact that our work demands the highest quality films 100% of the time. The world-class Black Magic system meets all these criteria and more.”

Prof. Tay is currently the principle investigator of this project. He has many years of experience in thin film technology, especially in tetrahedral amorphous carbon, nanocomposite carbon and CNT.
