RENATECH-MIMENTO

MIMENTO is the member of French National network in micro & nanotechnologies, called Renatech, coordinated by the CNRS. MIMENTO is also the technology center of FEMTO-ST Institute, located at Besançon, France. MIMENTO is a state-of-the-art facility for micro and nanofabrication facility housed in its 860 m2 clean room, equipped with modern and powerful processing machines.
Mimento is pecialized in micro-nano-acoustics, micro-nano-optics and micro-opto-electro-mechanical systems. The R&D activity at MIMENTO follows the main points described below:
-Technological research: micro- and nano-structures for research in physics, chemistry and biology, microstructures for the characterization of new materials.
-Manufacturing processes: new manufacturing processes in silicon and other materials (lithium niobate, glass, piezolectric materials), new processes for microelectronics, silicon post-processing.
-Integration and encapsulation techniques for microsystems.
The clean room, open to all users, is managed by a staff of engineers and technicians, specialists in microtechnologies who guarantee the availability of processing equipment, evaluate, install and operate processing equipment, train the users, develop new processes and improve the existing ones, and assist users with technical advice. The users of MIMENTO are researchers, graduate students, post-doctoral researchers and industrials. All activity in the clean room is invoiced on the basis of hourly processing rate.
