AmberWave Systems has expanded the number of both its university partnerships and its industry partners. The company's current materials platforms encompass applications as diverse as next-generation semiconductor memory, solar energy and advanced battery technologies. From the success of the commercialization of Strained Silicon in the CMOS semiconductor industry, to current work on advanced materials for the 21st Century, AmberWave Systems is leading the way in materials science and applications. At AmberWave Systems, using an intellectual property business model of innovation, patenting, licensing and tech transfer was recognized early on as the best way to achieve efficiency in bringing new materials to users.
