The main direction of scientific and production
activity of the Scientific Research Company «Electron-Carat» (SRC «Carat») is
experimentations, development of technologies for fabrication of up-to-date
materials used in micro- and radio-electronics as well as their manufacturing
application on industrial scale.
The SRC «Electron-Carat» has been founded in 1972, and long time it has been
known as the Lviv’s R&D Institute of Materials – leading scientific
organization of Ministry of Radio-Industry of the former USSR in the field of
radio-electronic materials science. Further the R&D Institute of Materials
was reorganized into the Scientific Production Association «Carat», and the
enterprise has embodied in the Joint Stock Company «Concern-Electron» in the
moment its foundation.
Now the SRC «Electron-Carat» is a branch of the «Electron» Concern.
It is a leading state scientific organization concerning scientific and
technical provision in area «Materials
for Electronic Engineering» and includes in the
State Register of Ukrainian Scientific Institutions. Company is a developer and
coordinator for implementation of State, Interindustry and Industry programs in
area of radio-electronic materials science and projects under State Foundation
of Basic Research as well.
The SRC «Electron-Carat» is possessed of modern research, technological and
production basis. Here it is created an unique laboratory-production complex
for growth of composite oxide single crystal compounds belonging to scientific
entities of Ukrainian National
Property
that has not analogs among CIS countries.
The first and just one in Ukraine state-of-art
nanofabrication of thin film heteroepitaxial structures with nanometric active
layers for microelectronic application has been organized at the Company.
Thanking efforts of scientists and engineers of the
SRC «Electron-Carat» modern materials
for
microelectronics, magnetoelectronics, acousto-
and optoelectronics, linear and
non-linear optics, magnetooptics, quantum electronics, sensorics, cryoelectronics, electroceramics, optoelectronic
devices, etc. are working out at the
Company.
Participation of the «Electron-Carat» in grandiose
international CERN (Conseil Européen pour la Recherche Nucléaire) project in Switzerland known as Large Hadron Collider
was an acknowledgement of its achievements in complex oxide single crystal growth technologies. For this project our Company has
fabricated some unique single crystals used in high energy radiation detectors.
4 Doctors of Science and 7 PhDs work at the SRC «Electron-Carat», some basic
science schools, which are well known over the world scientific community. A branch
of the Semiconductor Electronics Department of the «Lviv’s Politechnics» National University is established at the Company. Presenting modern
scientific ideas and searches in the field of materials science at
international conferences and symposiums the «Carat’s» scientists
present with dignity our country. The SRC «Electron-Carat» is one of founders
of the Joint Stock Company «Scientific Production Concern «Science», the main
activity of which is realization of scientific and technological potentialities
of Ukrainian materials science institutions in the field of high and ultimate
technologies.
The SRC «Electron-Carat» collaborates long time with numerous scientific
institutions and industrial companies from Bulgaria, China, France, Germany,
India, Korea, Poland, Russia, Switzerland, USA, etc.
