Advanced device process Lab.

In the clean room (class 10,000) located in a 330-m² area on the first floor of IRES², users can prototype fusion devices with various materials such as compound semiconductors, silicon, and carbon nanomaterials. Users can manufacture not only single devices such as nitride semiconductor LEDs, transistors, and sensors, but also MEMS chips.

IRES² project research lab.

The Collaborative Research Lab is equipped with observation and evaluation equipment such as a Raman spectrometer and an electron microscope, and devices manufactured in clean rooms can be evaluated.

Equipment:
  • Raman spectroscopy system (JASCO NSR-7100)
  • Focused Ion Beam system (Hitachi NB-5000)
  • Secondary Electron Microscope (Hitachi S-3000N)

IRES² Bio experiment Lab.
