Today Atomera added five new papers to our website showing, in more detail, how MST improves performance in semiconductors. Each of the papers was written in conjunction with a leading expert in the field and peer reviewed before publication by the IEEE or the AIP. ...

Atomera Semiconductor Variability mini-Seminar

At December’s IEEE IEDM conference in San Francisco, Atomera held a very well attended event to discuss semiconductor variability and how to mitigate it. Three speakers gave very interesting talks including: Mitigation of Intrinsic Vt Variation using Oxygen Inserted...

New Customer Enters Trials

Today another customer moved into Atomera’s evaluation stage which means they are building and testing wafers to determine how much MST can improve their product. With the addition of this new customer, Atomera is now in trials with five potential...

How Synopsys TCAD shows-off Atomera’s Magic

In its pure state, silicon is a dull grey crystalline material and a poor conductor of electric current. Yet, with the addition of small quantities of certain impurity atoms, also referred to as electrical dopants, it can be transformed into a plethora of electronic...
