Siltectra GmbH, founded in 2010 and headquartered in Germany, is a pioneering entity in the Manufacturing and Semiconductor industries. With its tagline, "An Infineon Technologies Company," it reflects its strategic alignment and integration with the industry giant, Infineon Technologies.
Specializing in wafer treatment technologies, Siltectra has developed the patented “Cold Split” process, which revolutionizes wafering by eliminating material loss, particularly significant in the PV and semiconductor sectors. The technology is both financially and environmentally beneficial, operating efficiently with materials like silicon, gallium arsenide, and germanium. With ongoing R&D into silicon carbide, gallium nitride, and similar materials, Siltectra stands ready to influence future markets in compound semiconductors and MEMS.
A significant turning point for the company was its acquisition by Infineon Ventures with a €124.00M investment in November 2018. This acquisition highlights strategic industry interest and offers a formidable financial foundation for further innovation and market growth.
