About Cambrios
Cambrios is an electronic materials company that develops proprietary, competitive products. Cambrios implements its novel technology to simplify electronics manufacturing processes, improve end-product performance and identify ways to satisfy unmet industry needs. Cambrios is also developing solution phase chemistries that will replace more complicated and expensive manufacturing processes.
Background
Cambrios was founded in 2002 by Drs. Angela Belcher of MIT and Evelyn Hu of the University of California, Santa Barbara. Their vision relied upon the use of nanostructured inorganic material, fabricated and shaped by biological molecules to create novel materials and processes for a variety of industries.
Through extensive, in-house research and development, the Cambrios team discovered two main attributes of its technology: its unique ability to synthesis inorganic materials from soluble precursors and to assemble inorganic materials into functional nanostructures.
Cambrios’ scientists seized the idea of making electronic materials using these proprietary nanostructures and sought out market segments with unmet materials needs or products uniquely enabled by the use of Cambrios’ materials. This led to the development of Cambrios’ first commercial product, a solution process, transparent conductor, which is scheduled for commercialization in 2007.
