ATLANT 3D

What if conducting regions in oxide materials could be patterned—without lithography? New research featured in Applied Physics Letters by AIP Publishing demonstrates a lithography-free method for patterning SrTiO₃-based two-dimensional electron gases (2DEGs) using Direct Atomic Layer Processing (DALP®). A 15 nm TiO₂ layer deposited with DALP® at ATLANT 3D was used to define conducting regions spatially. This enabled direct electrical measurements without post-growth microfabrication. The patterned 2DEG achieved: • Sheet carrier densities of approximately 5–7 × 10¹³ cm⁻² • Effective electrostatic tunability • Performance comparable to pulsed-laser-deposited SrTiO₃ heterostructures The results point toward a scalable, industry-compatible route for creating functional oxide structures, supporting future applications in oxide electronics, quantum materials, and advanced devices. 👉Read the full paper: https://hubs.ly/Q04sztG-0 🧑🔬Anshu Gupta, Karolis Parfeniukas, Amit Chanda, Thor H., Mira Baraket, Maksym Plakhotnyuk, Kasper Steen Pedersen, Felix Trier 💰 Felix Trier, Anshu Gupta, Amit Chanda and Thor H. acknowledge Villum Fonden for funding. 🌍 DTU Energy, DTU Chemistry, DTU - Technical University of Denmark #AtomicLayerProcessing #OxideElectronics #QuantumMaterials #AdvancedMaterials #ATLANT3D

The future of materials innovation depends on more than better AI models. AI is transforming how new materials are discovered. From machine learning to foundational models, researchers can now identify promising material candidates faster than ever before, unlocking opportunities across semiconductors, quantum, energy, advanced electronics, life sciences, advanced manufacturing and strategic industries. Yet one fundamental challenge remains. Discovering a promising material is only the beginning. Turning that discovery into a physical material that can be produced, tested, validated, and scaled is still a slow, fragmented, and resource-intensive process. The gap between digital discovery and physical validation continues to be one of the biggest barriers to accelerating innovation. We believe the next breakthrough won't come from AI alone. It will come from connecting AI directly to the physical world to enable material discoveries to move from prediction to validation to industrialization with unprecedented speed. That vision has been driving our team at ATLANT 3D. Soon, we will unveil the world's first and only physical platform for AI-driven materials discovery. Designed to create the physical execution loop that connects AI-generated discoveries to breakthrough materials and novel devices that can be scaled in the real world. Follow ATLANT 3D to be among the first to see what's coming. #AI #AIforScience #MaterialsDiscovery #AdvancedManufacturing #DeepTech #ATLANT3D

ATLANT 3D Becomes a Founding Member of CuspAI's AI Materials Foundry! Today we're proud to announce that ATLANT 3D is a Founding Member of CuspAI's newly launched AI Materials Foundry. Cusp AI announced today establishing the AI Materials Foundry, a global network bringing together leaders in AI, compute, scientific data, laboratories and advanced manufacturing to accelerate AI-driven materials discovery. The initiative includes more than 45 founding partners, including NVIDIA, Meta, Samsung Electronics, Hyundai Motor Group, Henkel, Applied Materials, Tokyo Electron, Lam Research and many others. At ATLANT 3D, we believe the next era of materials innovation requires more than AI-generated predictions. It requires autonomous physical infrastructure capable of transforming digital materials designs into experimentally synthesized and validated, device-ready technologies that can ultimately be manufactured at industrial scale. Through this partnership, ATLANT 3D is connecting its A-Hub™ autonomous materials foundry to CuspAI's AI Materials Foundry. A-Hub™ is ATLANT 3D's autonomous materials foundry, designed to transform AI-generated materials into experimentally validated, device-ready technologies through integrated synthesis, characterization, fabrication and AI-orchestrated continuous learning. At the core of every A-Hub™ is ATLANT 3D's NANOFABRICATOR® platforms, powered by our proprietary DALP® technology, enabling software-defined, programmable atomic-scale manufacturing with precision, repeatability and continuous learning from every experiment. Together, CuspAI's AI Materials Foundry provides the intelligence for AI-driven materials discovery, while ATLANT 3D's A-Hub™ provides the autonomous physical foundry where those discoveries are synthesized, characterized, fabricated and experimentally validated. Connecting these capabilities creates a continuous pathway from AI-generated materials to real-world technologies. We believe the future of materials innovation depends on connecting AI-driven discovery with autonomous physical experimentation. By integrating intelligent materials design with autonomous physical execution, we can dramatically accelerate the journey from digital prediction to validated devices and scalable manufacturing. We're excited to connect ATLANT 3D's A-Hub™ with CuspAI's AI Materials Foundry and help build the autonomous infrastructure that will enable the next generation of materials innovation.

Another milestone for Atomic Layer Manufacturing. We are proud to see a new publication in Nature Communications Materials demonstrating what is believed to be the first semiconductor solar-cell stack fabricated using atomic-layer additive manufacturing with Direct Atomic Layer Processing (DALP®) technology developed by FAU Erlangen-Nürnberg in collaboration with ATLANT 3D. Congratulations to Prof. Julien Bachmann, cofounder of ATLANT 3D, Micah Mc Naire, and all collaborators on this outstanding achievement. What makes this work particularly significant is not only the fabrication of a functioning ultrathin solar cell, but the successful development, optimization, and integration of four functional semiconductor materials into a complete device using atomic-layer additive manufacturing. This represents an important step beyond thin-film deposition. It demonstrates the ability to engineer complete material systems with atomic precision, enabling rapid validation of novel materials directly within functional devices. As AI accelerates the discovery of millions of new material candidates, the industry’s greatest challenge is no longer prediction - it’s physical validation. New materials only create value when they can be synthesized, integrated into devices, characterized, tested, and translated into manufacturable technologies. At ATLANT 3D, we are building the infrastructure to bridge this gap. Our Direct Atomic Layer Processing (DALP®) platform enables programmable atomic-scale manufacturing, providing the physical interface between AI-driven discovery and real-world device fabrication. This publication is another demonstration of how atomic-scale manufacturing can accelerate innovation across photovoltaics, semiconductors, photonics, MEMS, quantum technologies, and beyond. We thank all researchers and partners involved in this collaboration and look forward to enabling the next generation of materials and device innovation.
