Cambridge Dielectrix

Project Overview

About

To meet the demand for faster, smaller, and more energy-efficient electronics, Cambridge Dielectrix has developed a new insulating oxide that enables atomically thin semiconductors to be used reliably in advanced transistors. The innovation overcomes a key barrier in the miniaturisation of devices: creating a stable, ultra-clean interface between materials. Compatible with industrial-scale manufacturing, the technology supports next-generation architectures like CFETs and has the potential to transform computing, memory, and AI hardware by improving speed, efficiency, and scalability
