CST Global supports Innovate UK’s Emerging Technologies Showcase on Compound Semiconductor technologies

III-V optoelectronic foundry Compound Semiconductor Technologies Global Ltd (CST Global) of Hamilton International Technology Park, Blantyre, near Glasgow, Scotland, UK says that it supports the Emerging Technologies Showcase on Compound Semiconductor technologies, organized by Innovate UK’s Knowledge Transfer Network (KTN), which has profiled new and emerging compound semiconductor technologies from UK universities and industrial partners involved in consortium research projects funded by UK Government agency Innovate UK.

“The showcase identifies emerging compound semiconductor technologies with commercial, societal or environmental benefits,” says CST Global’s technical director Andrew McKee. “Industrial and end-user collaborations are facilitated, expediting the development of new products and services and identifying many grant-funding opportunities,” he adds.

“CST Global is currently an active member in ten UK and European Technology Consortium Programmes, with over 20 industrial and academic partners,” McKee continues. “CST Global brings expertise in device development, fabrication and process improvement, as well as extensive experience of taking low technology readiness level (TRL) III-V compound semiconductors into commercial applications.”

CST Global’s current collaborative projects include MacV, producing miniaturized atomic clocks with vertical-cavity surface-emitting lasers (VSCELs); Super8, developing high-speed transceiver platforms; CoolBlue2, focused on short-wavelength quantum light sources; and MIRAGE, targeting mid-infrared photonic components for sensing. Potential applications span the telecoms, industrial, defense and healthcare markets.
