Leti has developed a miniature version of its high-resolution helium 4 magnetometer that offers state-of-the-art sensitivity on a gas sample of just 100 mm3, or 320 times smaller than the full-size model. Leti, which carried out the development work in association with FEMTO-ST (a CNRS joint research unit), has filed a patent for a process […] >>

Scientists have found that by adding advanced magnetic tunnel junctions (MTJs) to frequency demodulators, they can cut the power requirements of some applications by a factor of ten. Spintec calculated the energy savings using the design and simulation software it developed in association with two university partners. Now scientists are even more confident in the […] >>

Painful vaccinations will become a thing of the past thanks to a clever new invention from Swiss medical device maker Debiotech. The company is working with Leti to develop a process for making silicon micro-needles that are only 700 microns long, preventing the needle from reaching the nerves in the dermis while boosting injection efficacy; […] >>

Leti and III-V Lab have marked a major step forward in silicon photonics by combining onto a single chip a hybrid laser (III-V materials and silicon) with 9-nm wavelength tunability and a silicon modulator. Conventionally, the laser sources for photonic components are fabricated separately and transferred onto the substrate, which complicates the process and results […] >>
