SBIR Phase I: Crystalline Ferroelectrics Combined with Transistor Technology

这个小企业创新研究（SBIR）第一阶段项目旨在制造利用铁电特性的设备，并克服目前铁电设备商业化道路上的障碍。微涂层技术（MCT）提出了一种新的概念，使铁电电容器与晶体管技术相结合。铁电器件在可调谐电容器、移相器等方面具有潜在的应用前景。如果MCT的产品计划成功，它将使更小、低噪声、高传输速率的微波器件和组件成为可能，并成功将铁电器件商业化。随着世界从电话线中解放出来，即越来越多地使用手机，可调谐微波设备的市场继续增长。无线技术的一位行业领导者对铁电材料表示了极大的兴趣，并确定了手机中的许多领域将受益于可变电容器，例如。

This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is directed towards making devices that take advantage of ferroelectric's properties and overcome the current roadblocks in the way of commercializing ferroelectric devices. MicroCoating Technologies (MCT) proposes a novel concept that would enable ferroelectric based capacitors to be integrated with transistor technology. Ferroelectric devices have potential for applications such as tunable capacitors, phase shifters, and others. If MCT succeeds in its product plan, it would enable a smaller, low-noise, high transmission rate microwave devices and components and successfully commercialize ferroelectric devices.The market for tunable microwave devices continues to grow as the world untethers itself from telephone lines, that is the increasing use of cell phones. An industry leader in wireless technology has expressed significant interest in ferroelectric materials, and has identified a number of areas in a cell phone that would benefit from variable capacitor, for example.
