CEZAMAT cooperates closely with CENTREA – the Centre for Terahertz Technology Research and Application (Institute of High Pressure Physics of the Polish Academy of Sciences) in the field of terahertz technology. The collaboration includes research on the fundamental properties and application of terahertz radiation.
The R&D includes a range of research and technology services. The simplest model of the services offered is to optimise the execution of single processes with the use of unique instrumentation. The model of cooperation with SEMISYS that is most often chosen by industrial and research partners includes the development of functional systems from the design stage to the achievement of the target geometry of the structures meeting the required functionality. This means that the team performs a wide range of activities related to the development of special-purpose integrated circuits. We respond to the needs of industrial partners by providing support for the development cycle from the definition of the functional requirements to the delivery of a pilot series, along with technical documentation that enables mass production. The individual services, including single processes and process cycles, involves characterisation and optimisation of layer manufacturing at the set angle, shape mapping and execution, including optimisation of a complex sequence of technological processes.
