About MASH

MASH wants to create a U.S. Manufacturing Institute that will aim to bridge the gap between research and commercialization while reducing cost and time it takes to develop semiconductor technologies.  We will offer expertise across the full semiconductor spectrum – materials, fabrication, metrology, testing, packaging, manufacturing, and advanced computing. MASH will also offer a network of industrial and academic resources and expertise with access to a vast assortment of materials, and equipment for fabrication, characterization, and digital twin modeling.

We are impacting how the U.S. advances semiconductor manufacturing and helps newcomers get involved in the microelectronics industry.  Read more about MASH…
