IMEC focuses on next generation electronics research, three to ten years ahead of industrial needs. The organization employs approximately 1,700 people.
To perform R&D;, ahead of industrial needs by 3 to 10 years, in nanoelectronics, nanotechnology, design methods and technologies for ICT systems.
This mission is backed by 3 trends in the electronics industry:
More Moore – Scaling electronic devices and circuits will continue into the next decade; it will be driven by Moore’s Law, following the technologies described in the International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS). CMOS will remain the main semiconductor technology platform in the foreseeable future.
More than Moore – Current CMOS processes can be used to develop new micro- and nanodevices with extended functionality such as sensors, MEMS, or NEMS....
