Funded Activity Summary

A novel maskless process for patterning and doping of silicon. The outcomes of this research will have consequences for the semiconductor industry by providing the potential for a completely new process tool for patterning and doping in device and circuit fabrication. The technology is also applicable as a simple and inexpensive way to 'write' conducting and insulating regions in silicon and may thus be applicable for smart cards and small industry. Successful implementation of the research will raise Australia's international profile in this area. This work will be particularly beneficial to a new high-tech Australian company, WRiota, which specializes in device technology based in nanoindentation of silicon.
