Up to £4m available in compound semiconductor competition

According to the investment body, the competition is intended to ensure that UK businesses can respond to market opportunities in compound semiconductors. Proposals are invited that should have ‘large and scalable’ commercial potential. Projects should have total costs ranging from £50,000 to £500,000 and should last between 6 and 15 months.

All projects must involve a compound semiconductor, such as GaAs, GaN, InP, SiC and HgCdTe, and Innovate UK says it is particularly interested in projects that address topics such as thermal management, materials and techniques, hybrid combinations of silicon die with compound semiconductor die ande automated or semi automated test methodologies.

All applications must be registered by midday on 19 October and submitted before midday on 26 October.
