The PATENT Network of Excellence
aims to establish a new technical community that
will address the underlying engineering science to
ensure that problems affecting the manufacture and
reliability of products based on micro and
nanotechnologies can be addressed before prototype
and pre-production. The "theme" of the work will be
defined as Design-for-Micro and Nano Manufacture and
will involve teams from the fields of packaging,
test engineering, reliability engineering,
simulation and modelling.
PATENT will provide added value by integrating what
are currently isolated and dispersed groups with
valuable skills, create mass in the field of
Design-for-Micro and Nano Manufacture in Europe and
provide researchers with access to state-of-the-art
equipment and technology.
Finally, PATENT and its associated technical
community will support both industrial teams and new
Projects where Micro and Nano technologies needs to
be:
- deployed in harsh or demanding environments;
- where reliability or dependability must be fully
validated or where;
- "right first time" manufacture is critical to meet
cost and time-to-market constraints.
