The 'CSconnected” project is based around integrating research excellence with the unique regional supply chains in advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing.
Compound semiconductors are critical components across a wide range of new technologies and the primary aim of the CSconnected project is to develop a competitive advantage in key enabling technologies which will allow the UK to increase trade globally in critical sectors such as communications, 5G, autonomous and electric vehicles, and medical devices.
The project partners include:
- Cardiff University (lead partner)
- Cardiff Capital Region City Deal;
- Compound Semiconductor Applications Catapult;
- Compound Semiconductor Centre (CSC);
- IQE Plc;
- MicroLink Devices UK Ltd
- Newport Wafer Fab (NWF);
- Rockley Photonics;
- Swansea University;
