I just found out that Von Kooten posted his contacts at the bottom of the article https://hollandsemiconductors.nl/2021/03/11/minimal-fab-minimal-fab-small-sc...

No, I don't know much about them, but what I wanted to suggest is to get in touch with them, and try to get a reference to their clients who operates those mini, and micro fabs.
Going through this industry body https://hollandsemiconductors.nl/ or directly contacting those fellow https://www.linkedin.com/in/matthijs-van-kooten-b59092118/?originalSubdomain... https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcelgrooten/?originalSubdomain=nl
A tricky thing I believe will be the fact that you may be their potential future competitors.

Hi No I didn't know this project. Seems to be pretty much the final stage of what I was thinking about... Can you get us in touch? Having one of those machines would make it unnecessary to have access to a clean room... It would be awesome!

Great to hear you guys having so much progress.
By any chance, have anybody heard of Domicro BV? A Netherland based microfab shop https://bits-chips.nl/artikel/small-series-of-chips-profitable-by-flexible-%... concept-minimal-fab/ On Mon, Mar 22, 2021 at 5:49 AM Ferenc Éger eegerferenc@gmail.com wrote:
Hello Everyone,
Summary of the Mumble session:
Participants: eegerferenc, hsank, leviathan, tatzelbrumm
Agenda:
- LS50U/MLL: It is proposed to make a maskless exposure unit based on
JBD's uLED panel targeted at 50-100um MFS, and make it available bundled into a "DIY Microchip Fabrication Kit" containing everything needed for
a basic process. Details discussed so far: * Substrate: custom, 1-2cm rectangular "wafers" in order to make
alignment easier and to fit into a small tube furnace. Similar, but polycrystalline offerings exist for solar panels. Finding and quoting a supplier is in progress.
* Exposure: JBD uLED panel + simple projection/reduction optics +3D-printed framework for alignment, into which the chips can be slided in.
* Furnace: cheap second-hand tube furnace, or a tube furnace heaterwith retrofitted quartz tube and control electronics (backup plan). Metal-lined, graphite-lined or gas-heated types are to be avoided due to contamination issues.
* Chemicals (HF, B, P, As, acidic cleaning agents, ...): Ordered inbulk and repackaged for distribution to overcome that chemical reagent suppliers don't deal with individuals.
* Funding: Initially, crowdfund with unit price based on theexpectation of at most 2 customers (semiconductor-related crowdfunding tends to fail), then lower the UP if more customers come. Also, plan B shall be formulated.
* Legal background: form a limited-liability company to handle thestuff.
Discussion is expected to continue until next Sunday, when things are expected to be written down. Comments on mailing list or participation in the Mumble session are welcome.
Regards,
Ferenc
