The University of California, Berkeley, USA has ordered one 4-inch Black Magic deposition system from AIXTRON AG.
The Black Magic system was selected for its unique ability to grow both SiGe nanowires and CNTs uniformly, rapidly and repeatably, and will be installed in the Laboratory for Nano Materials & Electronics by the local AIXTRON support team in the first half of 2010.
In addition, the system will be very useful for their research in achieving large-scale synthesis of nanowire arrays for integrated electronics and sensors, according to Prof. Ali Javey, UC Berkeley Assistant Professor of Electrical Engineering and Computer Science.
