February 6, 2012... Aixtron SE of Aachen, Germany, reports that Nanyang Technological University, Singapore, has procured an Aixtron 2-inch Black Magic PECVD system. Aixtron says that NTU researchers will use the system for the preparation of carbon nanotubes (CNT) and graphene for high frequency electronic devices. The local Aixtron service team with support from the Nanoelectronics Laboratory, School of Electrical and Electronic Engineering, NTU installed and commissioned the turnkey system.

Prof. Beng Kang Tay, principle investigator of the project commented, “Our new project involves the research and development of new types of materials for high frequency electronics. In particular, we plan to develop new interconnect and similar technologies for these devices using structures based on CNT, graphene and other carbon materials. These unique functional materials have great promise for the manufacture of RF electronic devices for advanced communications and networks."
