Semiconductor innovation delegation from the Netherlands visited NIMS

On 22nd June, the Dutch semiconductor innovation delegation consisting of the companies and knowledge institutes which were selected from throughout the semiconductor industry value chain in Netherlands visited Research Center for Electronic and Optical Materials, Research Center for Materials Nanoarchitectonics (MANA), and Research Center for Magnetic or Spintronic Materials at NIMS. They took an opportunity to discuss with NIMS researchers who have expertise in the field of semiconductors and to try to match the mutual research interests.
