Characterizing the CEMOP/UNINOVA Infrastructure
The Center (CEMOP) is specially equipped for Research & Development, service providing and training activities in five main areas:
- microelectronic and optoelectronic devices' conception/production technologies and processes;
- tribologic and optic coatings;
- system project and conception;
- material and device characterization;
- and also device simulation/modeling.
In pursuit of its objectives, CEMOP takes part in several research projects, both fundamental and applied, involving universities, institutes and companies, both National and International. CEMOP's privileged partner for R&D related activities is the Center for Materials' Research of the FCTUNL (CENIMAT), with whom it cooperates on a regular basis.
