Cleanroom
130 m² cleanroom
The controlled environment where every crystal is made.
Work with us on this instrument
What it does
130 m² of filtered, controlled air, where dust cannot settle on wafers between steps. It houses the dicing, lithography and bonding equipment, the spin coater and the wet benches for chemical etching.
Keeping the chain in one place matters: a crystal goes from dicing to etching, coating, patterning and bonding without leaving the controlled environment, and is checked in our metrology labs at each stage.
What we use it for
Every fabrication step
From raw wafer to bonded optic, for all our research lines.
Students at work
Bachelor, master and PhD students learn cleanroom practice on real projects.
Working with us
Researchers and companies can work with us in the cleanroom on joint projects: write to us with what you need to make.
