Applied materials, inc. announces opening of the materials engineering technology accelerator

Applied materials, inc. announced the opening of the materials engineering technology accelerator (meta center), a first-of-its-kind facility aimed at speeding customer prototyping of new materials, process technologies and devices. as chipmaking becomes increasingly challenging, the meta center extends applied's ability to collaborate with customers to pioneer new ways of improving chip performance, power and cost. located at the state university of new york polytechnic institute (suny poly) campus in albany, new york, the meta center's cleanroom provides customers and partners access to process systems to help shorten the time from lab to fab. at the meta center, engineers can evaluate novel chip materials, structures and devices, testing them in a robust pilot manufacturing environment and accelerating their readiness for customer high-volume manufacturing facilities. among the first chip devices under evaluation at the meta center is a new magnetic random-access memory (mram) targeted at internet of things devices, providing low-power, nonvolatile code storage and high-density working memory. the meta center is a strategic addition to applied's global r&d environment. it complements applied's maydan technology center in silicon valley where new process systems are developed, along with the company's advanced materials lab and advanced packaging development center, both located in singapore.
