The institute’s research is supported by a comprehensive range of facilities and infrastructure, providing advanced capabilities for synthesis, processing, and characterization of materials. These resources encompass specialized equipment and analytical platforms that enable high-quality experimental and technological work across disciplines. Together, they form the foundation for innovative research and the development of advanced material systems.
The aim of this initiative is to enable large-scale processing of advanced functional materials at the atomic level for future nanotechnologies. Therefor the Competence Center at IFW Dresden has been upgraded with an industrial MOCVD reactor from Agnitron Technology (USA). This system enables highly precise process control, especially with newly developed precursors, greatly enhancing the institute’s materials research capabilities. Recently, an ALD reactor from Veeco Systems (Fiji) capable of handling 200 mm wafers and growing a wide variety of material systems, including 2D materials, metals, and dielectrics, was installed. This tool can also handle custom-made precursors. Together, these developments further strengthen the competence center’s role as a bridge between fundamental research and application-driven development.
