The aim of this project is to provide more efficient and accurate solutions for the semiconductor test industry by designing, developing, and demonstrating next-generation high-density vertical MEMS probe card (HD-VPC), that meet the accuracy and precision requirements of high-performance semiconductor products. By developing and applying this new probe c...

Wiring in aircraft, cars and many consumer electrical goods is done by hand. It is an expensive and laborious process that is prone to errors that can cause failures and sometimes even fires. The LiveWire project will create a machine that can automate manufacture and embed wiring into a component, such as: an airline seat, or a wall or floor panel, or pe...

"With the increase in electric vehicles and the slow fade out of fossil fuelled combustion engines, there is an ever-increasing demand for energy storage devices in the automotive industry. This in turn means that there is an ever increasing requirement for critical elements such as cobalt, nickel, manganese, lithium and graphite. In addition, at the end ...

The project objective is to develop and inetgrate new and sophisticated materials and processing techniques for which there is a latent demand in the healthcare and industrial markets where new low cost digitally connected flexible electrical circuits can give improved performance characteristics for technical and commercial advantage. Ultimately a high p...

Processes will be developed to produce a quantum dot based frequency modifying system for flexible light emitting sheets. New silicon based light emitting diodes will be developed with integral beam shaping and driving logic that will be integrated into a number of flexible substrates with emission spectra tailored to be compatible with the absorption cur...

The technological challenge of successfully implementing colour & video capability within a reflective (non-backlit) display has been challenging the display industry for years. Reflective E-reader displays are slow to refresh and only available in black and white, whilst backlit LCD and emissive OLED screens consume high rates of power: this limits the i...

This collaborative industrial R&D project with Nissan UK, Ceres Power and M-Solv aims to demostrate a compact, high power density, low emission SOFC battery charger for range extension of light commercial electrical vehicles (LCEV) such as the Nissan eNV200. This will involve the design, build, test and demonstration of a compact, robust, fast-response SO...

The purpose of this project is to use a novel cell interconnect process to enable perovskite based semi-transparent Photovoltaic (PV) modules with non-standard dimensions for Building Integrated Photovoltaics (windows of high rise buildings), flexible PV modules using the material CIGS or for industrial roofs, and conventional thin film PV modules (CIGS/C...

The project consortium, which includes M-Solv (process developer and small-scale capacitive touch sensor (CTS) manufacturer), Thomas Swan (graphene manufacturer), Printed Electronics Ltd (inkjet ink formulator) and University of Surrey, aims to bring innvoations to CTS manufacture. CTS comprises of structured transparent conductors (TC), which sense the c...

The In Touch project aims to develop robust, industrial-grade multi-touch capacitive touch sensors (MTCTS) and a fully digital (ie driven from CAD files with no, or minimal fixed tooling) manufacturing process. The process is designed to be suitable for short, high-product mix, production runs. The MTCTS product will be tolerant to extreme temperature var...

Mobile device market, e.g., smartphones & tablets, continues to grow rapidly and consumers are demanding ever increasing performance within smaller electronic footprints. To meet these demands the semiconductor industry require process technology for novel IC packaging solutions using glass interposer technology. Forecasts show that by 2017, 2.5D interpos...
