SP Microtech

Dr Petar Igic from Swansea University’s College of Engineering along with Dr Soroush Faramehr, Dr Matt Elwin and Professor Nebojsa Jamkovic set up a company called SP Microtech which is taking advantage of the creation of the world’s first Compound Semiconductor Cluster in South East Wales.
Compound semiconductors are at the heart of many devices we use today – from smart phones to tablets and satellite communication systems.
It is an area of UK strength and Dr Igic, who has 20 years of experience of research in power semiconductor devices and technologies, and his colleagues are working to deliver commercial grade sensing solutions for a diverse range of applications in automotive current sensing, high resolution metrology, non-destructive inspection and test, and security screening applications.
