Process Technologies

 

AppliCote’s Laser Materials Synthesis (LMS) processing technology combines laser conversion and laser doping.

Laser conversion processing involves controlled phase transformations, solid state diffusion and the creation of conductors without the addition of metal.  Selective electrical conductivity, insulation or semiconductor properties; selective refractive index and absorption index properties; and selective thermal conductivity properties can be processed in the same material.

Laser doping is an advance over ion implantation that enables the implantation of a wide range of elements in compound semiconductors without damage and achieves higher concentrations and deeper depths. The process enables implantation of multi-charge carriers, creation of hybrid substrates and endotaxy, which is an advance over epitaxy.

Prototype Laser Materials Synthesis Apparatus 

This combination of laser process technologies has the potential to drastically reduce capital equipment requirements by enabling laser direct write of circuits. AppliCote is currently bundling its materials, process, device and apparatus IP necessary to support joint venture product development efforts within fields of use including: light emitting materials; conductor, semiconductor and insulator materials; photovoltaics and direct energy conversion; wireless sensors; gas disassociation; and medical nanosize energy converters.

Value Proposition

 

 

Top

 

 

 

 

 

AppliCote’s business model involves entering into a Development Agreement with a client company interested in developing a new game changing product for a specific field of use. The Development Agreement typically includes three phases resulting in development of a proof-of-concept, functional and commercial prototypes. A License Agreement, which details the IP licensing terms for eventual client commercialization of the technology is also executed.

AppliCote’s IP can be seen as providing the foundation for creating Laser Materials Synthesis building blocks. The graphic above demonstrates how these building block structures might fit together. For additional information on these LMS building blocks, contact us at bobm@applicote.com or (407) 353-7730.
