We have state-of-the-art fabrication equipment from making the smallest of transistors at 10 nanometre to drawing tens of kilometre of optical fibre cable. Here are two key tools:
Electron Beam Lithography System at the Southampton Nanofabrication Centre:
A research tool used for direct write circuit patterns onto semiconductor wafers capable of delivering less than 5 nanometre feature size for nanoelectronic and photonic device applications.
Optical Fibre Drawing Tower at the Silica Fibre Lab:
A specialised tool for the manufacturing of cutting edge fibre optics for the next generation broadband network infrastructure.
