Imagine a tiny scratch on a mirror that ruins the reflection; semiconductor chips have similar invisible defects on their surfaces that waste energy. This technology acts like a high-tech polish that removes 98% of these defects and seals the surface. This makes electronic components work much faster and use far less battery power.
Semiconductor manufacturing suffers from surface defects that cause energy leakage and lower chip reliability. This leads to higher power consumption in devices and wasted materials during production.
A pilot line prototype capable of processing up to 8" substrates and a validated process flow for optoelectronic devices.
If you are a display maker dealing with high power drain and low brightness — this project developed Kontrox that demonstrated 250% higher efficiency and 90x less power consumption in microLEDs.
If you are a chip supplier dealing with reliability issues in power electronic chips — this project developed a passivation technique that reduces surface defects and improves manufacturing yields.
If you are a laser manufacturer dealing with short component lifespans — this project developed a process that increases edge emitting laser power outputs by up to 50% while improving reliability.
Based on available project data, specific pricing is not disclosed, but the technology is designed to integrate into existing manufacturing flows to optimize yields.
Yes, the project designed and built a pilot line capable of processing substrates up to 8 inches to demonstrate scalability.
The technology is highly protected with 24 patents, indicating a strong foundation for licensing or proprietary use.
Kontrox is designed to be combined with existing processing technologies, such as thin film deposition techniques, and integrated into conventional manufacturing flows.
The project concluded in October 2024, having already validated the technology with industrial partners.
The project was led by a single Finnish SME, Comptek Solutions Oy, which acted as the sole partner. This lean structure indicates that the core IP and technical execution are centralized within one company, simplifying the commercialization path and IP management.
