• Key Technologies at RJM Semiconductor developed from years of experience in understanding the need to improve yields and throughput in semiconductor production using vacuum deposition (MBE and related thin film technologies)
• RJM facility includes state-of-the-art MBE and CIGS solar cell deposition system for prototyping and device development
• Government SBIR contracts helped support development of InfinitiCell metal deposition sources
• RJM Semiconductor retains full commercial rights to InfinitiCell technology
• RJM Semiconductor is inserting its breakthrough InfinitiCell technology into very high growth markets including thin film Solar Cell Modules, MBE compound semiconductors wafers, and Li Ion Battery manufacturing

RJM Semiconductor has introduced the InfinitiCell technology to key industry users and has formed a strategic alliance with a major Solar Cell manufacturer to enable high-volume production of next-generation thin film Cu(In,Ga)Se2 (CIGS) Solar Cell modules with very high conversion efficiencies (>15%).
The greatly improved process control and throughput provided by the InfinitiCell technology will result in the lowest possible manufacturing costs in the solar cell industry which today is the fasting growing high-tech industry in the world.
The InfinitiCell has also been introduced into Molecular Beam Epitaxy (MBE) for high volume manufacturing of GaAs and InP epiwafers used in the production of cell phone RF power amplifiers and telecom lasers and photodetectors. The InfinitiCell technology is expected to have other industrial applications for large-scale metal deposition in vacuum including Li Ion Battery manufacturing for use in cell phones, power storage, and electric vehicles.
RJM Semiconductor has also developed some key technologies through work with government agencies, universities, and industry.
• RJM Semiconductor patented-process for manufacturing 300GHz cut-off frequency InP Double Heterojunction Bipolar Transistors (DHBTs) for millimeter-wave amplifiers performed in collaboration with NASA JPL.
• High power Buried Heterostructure Quantum Cascade Lasers (BH-QCLs) in collaboration with Bell Labs, University of Connecticut, and Multiplex.
