The microelectronics fabrication lab is where much of the design and fabrication for our research group occurs. It has a wide range of tools available for use. This includes machines for LTCC assembly such as a screen printer, punch, and several ovens. It also contains a stereolithography machine which is used to form arbitrary 3d shapes out of polymer. These parts can then be metalized and used as antennas, resonators, or ion traps. There is a milling machine and a lamination press which can be used to fabricate large scale planar circuits as well as patch antennas and similar devices.
