Polymatech Electronics acquires Nisene Technology Group Inc., California, USA, to revolutionize semiconductor industry

CHENNAI, INDIA, August 6, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — In a strategic move to strengthen its position in leading-edge semiconductor IC manufacturing and testing equipment, Polymatech Electronics, India the first semiconductor integrated circuit manufacturer, officially announced the acquisition of Nisene Technology Group Inc., California, United States (www.nisene.co), a company with a 50-year history in the semiconductor industry. The acquisition was made through Polymatech’s wholly owned subsidiary, Artificial Electronics Intelligent Materials Pte Ltd. Singapore.

Nisene Technology Group is known for its pioneering work in semiconductor invention and development, particularly integrated circuits (ICs) built on silicon and carbide wafers. Since its founding in the 1970s, Nisene has remained at the forefront of innovation, continually improving IC and AI components to meet the increasing complexity of today’s semiconductor devices. Over the years, Nisene has designed at least 50 different types of ICs and has filed numerous patents, solidifying its position as a cornerstone of the industry.

“This acquisition complements Polymatech’s leading product portfolio and enables the development of new product classes,” he said. Ryan Youngnew CEO of Nisene. Nisene’s expertise in silicon and silicon carbide, combined with Polymatech’s sapphire-based semiconductors, creates a unique multi-wafer technology. This merger positions Polymatech as potentially the only company in the world with such a comprehensive semiconductor offering.

Polymatech will continue to manufacture sapphire wafers using advanced technology from leading European tool suppliers. These tools are expected to be in production by the end of January 2025. This latest European technology uses a different, faster sapphire growing methodology and Polymatech will therefore transition to this new EU technology, following the closing of the previous agreement with Orbray. In addition, their EU partner will also supply the latest silicon carbide wafer technology to the Polymatech group.

Strategically located in California, United Statesepicenter of the semiconductor industry, Polymatech plans to invest up to $1,000 million 500 million dollars. The company will produce silicon carbide and sapphire wafers, high-performance CPUs and GPUs for PCs and mobile devices. Polymatech’s unprecedented, top-of-the-range network chips will enable the latest Wi-Fi and 6G standards. The company aims to achieve the highest US line 5 billion dollars by 2030.
