The Soitec-Leti Substrate Innovation Center opened a year ago. Today it continues to grow, with a team of around a dozen Soitec R&D engineers and substantial support from Leti staff. The Center’s 200 mm and 300 mm equipment, which includes a pilot line entirely dedicated to R&D, has recently expanded to include a Kokusai furnace. […] >>

This summer, eight Grenoble-based projects were awarded prizes in the 21st national innovative startup competition, i-Lab. Of the eight, three of the winners were projects from CEA Grenoble labs that had previously received CEA Tech support under the Challenge First Step competition. The three CEA winners of i-Lab are: PowerUp (a battery management and optimization […] >>

ISKN, a startup founded in 2014 to develop and commercialize an augmented interaction technology hatched at Leti, made its reputation with the Slate, which transforms handwritten drawings, sketches, and notes into digital files in real time. This summer the company ramped up its international business development strategy, presenting its latest product, Tori, in New York […] >>

Leti has achieved a world-first in embedded artificial intelligence with its Spirit neural-network-on-chip. The component is largely brain-inspired, using unary rather than binary coding, just like neurons! Each event adds “weight” to the synapse until a “firing” threshold is reached. The chip’s resistive memory is also bio-inspired: Integrating the memory directly on the chip eliminates […] >>

The Tiny lithium-ion microbattery is redefining the international state of the art in miniature energy storage, with a thickness of less than 100 microns, a surface area of just a few square millimeters, and a capacity three times that of competing batteries. Leti and Liten developed Tiny, which is made using a thin-layer deposition technique. […] >>
