CHIPS for America Awards

Photothermal Spectroscopy Corporation – Santa Barbara, CA
Award Amount: $283,489
CHIPS Organization
CHIPS SBIR
Develop a new instrument for high-speed thermal properties analysis and simultaneous chemical characterization with sub-micron spatial resolution. This project will improve thermal management and thermal property characterization for the U.S. semiconductor industry.
Laser Thermal Analysis, Inc. – Charlottesville, VA
Award Amount: $289,830
CHIPS Organization
CHIPS SBIR
Develop hybrid atomic force microscopy instrument that will automatically generate maps of the thermal resistance, thermal boundary interface resistance, and temperature profiles of microprocessors and wide bandgap semiconductor materials and devices. This project will benefit devices with thermal management challenges and materials development needs on length scales smaller than 100 nanometers.
Octave Photonics – Louisville, CO
Award Amount: $290,000
CHIPS Organization
CHIPS SBIR
Develop a new measurement tool to analyze airborne contaminants and toxic gases inside and outside the fab that lead to semiconductor processing defects and safety infringements. This project will benefits U.S semiconductor fabrication facilities.
HighRI Optics, Inc – Oakland, CA
Award Amount: $283,009
CHIPS Organization
CHIPS SBIR
Develop cutting-edge technology for calibration of the instrument transfer function of extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithographic tools. This project will advance EUV lithography technology for the U.S. semiconductor industry.
Tech-X Corporation – Boulder, CO
Award Amount: $289,992
CHIPS Organization
CHIPS SBIR
Develop a simulation tool for photonic integrated circuits that accounts for manufacturing variations and imperfections. This project will benefit the designers of photonic integrated circuits, who will have faster development times as well as U.S. semiconductor manufacturers and fabrication facilities.
