Research and Development

McGill’s Nanotools Microfab laboratory is a fabrication facility open to multi-disciplinary research initiatives spanning the life-sciences, sciences and engineering. While a wide array of substrate materials and sizes can be accommodated, our entire toolset is 150mm wafer compatible, thereby allowing for small volume prototyping as needed.

Managed and operated by a team of dedicated professionals with 35+ years of semiconductor industry experience, the team is currently focusing its efforts on the establishment of stable, repeatable and well-documented processes.
Fab Team Mission: Identify, establish and promote those processes, services and activities which serve to further enhance the Microfab’s role as a key resource for multidisciplinary research initiatives.

My missions are:
- develop new based line process, document and ensure repeatability
- Qualify new tool
- qualify and document new full processes developed by student (microfluidics, cantiliver...)
- help students and other users in their work in the microfab
- research project 1: planar patch clamp device for neuro physics
- research project 2: electrostatic microvalves for microfluidics VLSI
- promote the microfab inside and outside the university

Hybridization of III-V semiconductors onto ion-exchanged waveguides.

The project's aim was to hybridize III-V semiconductor amplifier monolithically with ion-exchanged waveguides. I was involved in the numerical simulation as well as the fabrication part. The fabrication was related to wafer bonding of semiconductor onto glass.
