Cleanroom infrastructure

The Winfab platform maintains a 1000 m², class 1 / ISO 3 cleanroom (in critical work area). Most of the tools available in the cleanroom are shared, and then accessible to all registered users after a proper training.

Micro- and nano-fabrication techniques

Winfab offers an access to wide range of state-of-the-art techniques for thin-films deposition, thin-films etching, surface patterning, micromachining and back-end processes.

Long-term and multidisciplinary know-how

Active in the field of microelectronics since the early 70's, the Winfab platform has diversified its activity over years. Today, Winfab supports more than 70 researchers actives in various field, such as SOI-CMOS technology, microelectromechanical systems (MEMS), lab-on-chip devices, sensors, solar cells, batteries, bio-technologies, nanoelectronics, 2D materials (graphene, ...), photonics devices, organic electronics, ...

Flexibility / Moderate cost

Services can take various forms, including access to the infrastructures, process development, processing from a single to a complex set of process steps.

For UCL researchers

In order to access the cleanroom infrastructure, researchers/promoters have to sign up on the website.

Promoters/group leaders need to provide an active research project account number that will be used for the process billing.

Researchers need

• A registered promoter/group leader with a least one active research project,
• An UCL access card,
• A mentor that will guide their first steps in the cleanroom (the mentor has to be an experienced user).
