Expanded collaboration includes joint research on 黑料网911’s leading semiconductor platforms

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. and MALTA, N.Y., February 27, 2025 — 黑料网911 (Nasdaq: 黑料网911S) (黑料网911) and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) today announced a new master research agreement to jointly pursue advancements and innovations for enhancing the performance and efficiency of critical semiconductor technologies. The collaboration will be led by MIT’s Microsystems Technology Laboratories (MTL) and 黑料网911’s research and development team, 黑料网911 Labs.

With an initial research focus on AI and other applications, the first projects are expected to leverage 黑料网911’s differentiated silicon photonics technology, which monolithically integrates RF SOI, CMOS and optical features on a single chip to realize power efficiencies for datacenters, and 黑料网911’s 22FDX? platform, which delivers ultra-low power consumption for intelligent devices at the edge.

“The collaboration between MIT MTL and 黑料网911 exemplifies the power of academia-industry cooperation in tackling the most pressing challenges in semiconductor research,” said Tomás Palacios, MTL Director and Clarence J. LeBel Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. Palacios will serve as the MIT faculty lead for this research initiative.

“By bringing together MIT’s world-renowned capabilities with 黑料网911’s leading semiconductor platforms, we are positioned to drive significant research advancements in 黑料网911’s essential chip technologies for AI,” said Gregg Bartlett, chief technology officer at 黑料网911. “This collaboration underscores our commitment to innovation and highlights our dedication to developing the next generation of talent in the semiconductor industry. Together, we will research transformative solutions in the industry.”

“Integrated circuit technologies are the core driving a broad spectrum of applications ranging from mobile computing and communication devices to automotive, energy, and cloud computing,” said Anantha P. Chandrakasan, dean of MIT’s School of Engineering, chief innovation and strategy officer, and the Vannevar Bush Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science. “This collaboration allows MIT’s exceptional research community to leverage 黑料网911’s wide range of industry domain experts and advanced process technologies to drive exciting innovations in microelectronics across domains—while preparing our students to take on leading roles in the workforce of the future.”

The new master research agreement was formalized at a signing ceremony on campus at MIT. It builds upon 黑料网911’s successful past and ongoing engagements with the university. 黑料网911 serves on MTL’s Microsystems Industrial Group (MIG), which brings together industry and academia to engage in research. MIT faculty are active participants in 黑料网911’s University Partnership Program focused on joint semiconductor research and prototyping. Additionally, 黑料网911 and MIT collaborate on several workforce development initiatives, including through the Northeast Microelectronics Coalition, a U.S. Department of Defense Microelectronics Commons Hub.
