Electrum Laboratory: Semiconductor development

Welcome to the Electrum Laboratory, where cutting-edge research, collaboration, and innovation converge. As a joint initiative between RISE (Research Institutes of Sweden) and KTH (Royal Institute of Technology), Electrum plays a pivotal role in shaping the future of semiconductor technology. The ecosystem is a pioneer in Wide Band Gap Materials.

At Electrum, industrial customers and academic researchers work in parallel, including companies like Coherent, Kisab, IR-Nova, and several international under NDA.

Our Mission 

At Electrum, we foster close collaborations between institutes, academia, and industry. Our strategic focus lies in being a production incubator for micro and nanotechnology. Located in the vibrant innovation environment of Kista, we drive breakthroughs in semiconductor components across various domains. 

High-Tech Clean Room for Semiconductor Manufacturing 

Our state-of-the-art clean room is equipped with advanced technology, enabling precision manufacturing of semiconductor components. Whether you’re working on high-power electronics, photonics, sensors, or quantum technology, Electrum provides the ideal environment for your endeavours. 

From Idea to Commercial Product 

Whether you’re a startup or an established company, we collaborate with you from the initial idea to a finished commercial product. Our innovation hub supports pilot testing and prototype scaling, ensuring that your vision becomes reality. 

Empowering Startups and Scaleups 

  • Cost-Effective Innovation  Our testbed eliminates the need for expensive equipment investments. Startups and scaleups can swiftly kickstart their ideas within our collaborative ecosystem. 
  • Comprehensive Services  Electrum offers coworking spaces, expert consulting for collaborations and financing, and access to advanced equipment and technical expertise. 
  • Industrialization of Semiconductors  Electrum stands as Sweden’s largest testbed for industrializing semiconductors. Here, you can engage in both product development and pilot production. 
  • Customized Manufacturing Areas Establish your own manufacturing area tailored to your specific equipment and processes. 
  • Access to World-Class Facilities Explore our clean rooms and laboratories, equipped with cutting-edge tools for processing and characterizing new materials and components. 
  • Expert Personnel Our team includes researchers and specialists experienced in the simulation, growth, fabrication, characterization and packaging of semiconductor material and devices. Our extensive experience lies in the field of wide-bandgap materials, specifically silicon carbide (SiC) and gallium nitride (GaN) 
  • Development of IP If your work results in new inventions and intellectual property is created, we have long experience in modelling agreements to handle IP, licensing or tech transfer processes, so that you can own and/or exploit the results in your field.
