Minsk Research Institute of Radiomaterials of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus offers consumers foundry services for the creation of MMICs under a outsourcing agreement or subcontract and is looking for partners interested in a manufacturing agreement.

OJSC "Minsk Research Institute of Radiomaterials" of the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus provides a full cycle of foundry services for the creation (carrying out research and development work), production of experimental and prototypes , manufacturing of a wide list of MMICs L-, S-, X- and K-bands on A3B5 materials according to the requirements customer (frequency range, gain, noise, output power, etc.).

The Institute has mastered the following technologies for creating MMICs:
* 200 nm pHEMT;
* 200 nm DpHEMT;
* Schottky diodes;
* pin diodes;
* heterostructural bipolar transistors GaAs.

Technologies include a full set of operations necessary for the manufacture of microwave devices, which allow passivation of VHF and thinning of plates, forming:
* active elements (transistors, diodes) using electronic lithography;
* galvanic inductances with “air” bridges;
* MDM capacitors;
* thin film resistors;
* through holes.

The following technologies have been developed and used for ceramic devices:
* formation of microstrip lines grown by galvanic method;
* thin-film resistors;
* metallized through holes, both "deaf", overgrown with metal, and open.

For manufactured samples, the necessary measurements are carried out at the Institute’s own bench base. Testing of filter microcircuits is carried out at a probe station.

Areas of use:
* radiolocation;
* radiomonitoring;
* means RES;
* radio measuring equipment.

OJSC "Minsk Research Institute of Radiomaterials" offers partners:
* foundry services for the creation of MMICs under a outsourcing agreement or subcontract;
* microwave devices under a manufacturing agreement.

Foundry services for the creation of MMICs are similar to those provided by the following companies:
«MACOM, European Semiconductor Center» (France);
«Chengdu HiWafer Semiconductor Co., Ltd.» (China);
«United Monolithic Semiconductors» (Germany);
«JSC RISD» (Russian Federation);
«BAE Systems, Inc.» (USA);
«Wolfspeed, Inc.» (USA).

The specialization of the institute includes the following main areas:
* development and production of the element base and functional units of microwave technology (solid-state microwave monolithic integrated circuits - low-noise amplifiers and power amplifiers, protective devices, switches, attenuators, frequency converters; microwave modules, etc.);
* development and production of optoelectronic components and modules based on them (photodetectors, light emitting diodes, semiconductor lasers, receiving and transmitting optical modules);
* production of materials for semiconductor production - gallium arsenide substrates of the "epi-ready" standard;
* development of sensor technology, modules and systems (sensors for inclination, pressure, acceleration, electronic compass, etc.);
* development and production of medical equipment.

The research and production base of the institute includes dedicated equipment which allows to develop and perform a full cycle of technological operations for the manufacture of microwaves, optoelectronic components, sensors of physical quantities based on microelectromechanical systems, equipment for the manufacture of medical products - Glucosen sensors etc. In particular, the equipment allows cutting semiconductor ingots of A3B5 compounds (GaAs, InP, GaN, etc.), grinding and polishing wafers, epitaxial growth, thermal diffusion and implantation of dopants, microcircuit packaging, control of their parameters, etc.

The Institute has a licensed software for electrodynamic calculations, its own library of standard elements, methods for monitoring and testing microwave components in the C, S, L, X, K wavelength ranges, electronic lithography equipment with a resolution of 100 nm, which provides a modern level of design standards.

As part of the specialization, the development of technologies, components and devices for various radio-electronic systems is carried out: radar systems, fiber-optic communication lines, laser rangefinders, systems for leveling and orientation of objects, control systems, guidance and navigation, etc.
