Join the Advanced Lithography Symposium at Stanford on July 12th. Nanoscribe, SwissLitho, Genisys, Eulitha, Heidelberg Instruments and Raith will describe the latest, state-of-the-art, nano- and micro-lithography capabilities. Save your spot now:
Raith’s PIONEER Two helped to detect “Big Bang molecule” The first astrophysical detection of the helium hydride ion hit the news in April, immediately generating massive interest. The ion was the first molecule that formed after the Big Bang but could never before be detected in interstellar medium. With GREAT’s (German REceiver for Astronomy at Terahertz frequencies) far-infrared spectrometer onboard the flying observatory SOFIA (Stratospheric Observatory For Infrared Astronomy) detection was now made possible, offering a glance at the history of the early Universe. A central part of the receiver was fabricated with the help of a Raith PIONEER Two system: The NbN Hot-Electron-Bolometers used to down-convert the incoming THz signals to amplifiable GHz frequencies were designed and patterned at the microfabrication laboratory of University of Cologne’s I. Physikalisches Institut.
Learn how a standard adhesive tape can help overcome the relatively slow patterning speed of direct FIB milling. Our new application note describes the sketch & peel approach in detail and also investigates the change in outcome when using different ion species. Download it here:
