Super-Power for a Connected World.
Imagination is limitless. Each day, new devices and software are added to our digital ecosystem, demanding faster connections capable of sending more data, with less power, and with greater efficiency.
We rely on fast, stable RF highways to send and receive data between digital devices. Problem is, current chip solutions are running out of space for improvement. Most semiconductors today are built on silicon. They’re amazing for many applications, but have their limitations—especially when it comes to Radio Frequency (RF) applications.
Increasing demands from 5G, 6G and beyond are making silicon solutions unfeasible. Without reliable RF connections, the internet of things will be downgraded to merely “things.”
Without a solution for these limitations, carriers need more access points to maintain signal reach. The outcome? Network costs balloon. Installation timelines drag on. And – precious energy is wasted.
If we want to meet the demands of imagination, we need new materials and approaches.
