Intermolecular. Inc. proposed a unique approach that allows accelerating scientific research, implementing innovations and substantially reducing the time it takes to bring a product to market in the semiconductor and clean energy fields.
The approach is based on the combination of the proprietary, high-performance combinatorial (HPC™) platform and the company’s inter-disciplinary team of experts.
Within the context of the collaborative development programs (CDPs) conducted jointly with its customers, Intermolecular creates proprietary technologies focused on advanced materials and processes.
Intermolecular, Inc. was founded in 2004 in San Jose, California.

More information about the company --- www.intermolecular.com that built a distributed platform for depositing multifunctional thin-film coatings to different materials. The Agreement was signed by the Senior Vice-President of Global Sales and Marketing for IMI Craig Hunter, CEO of the Ulyanovsk NanoCenter Andrey Redkin, CIO of the NanoCenter of the Republic of Mordovia Dmitry Krakhin, CEO of the Dubna Nanocenter Aleksey Gostomelsky. Parties to the Agreement expressed intent to work out the terms and sign relevant agreements towards the implementation of the joint project.
The Agreement's purpose is to establish a high-tech company that will focus on creating intellectual property, commercializing new technologies and forming new companies around enhanced coating technologies for glass products, photovoltaic devices, electronics and displays. The solution will allow the company’s customers to develop unique technologies and quickly bring products to market.
We are creating a research company that meets the highest global standards. Parts of the combinatorial platform will be distributed between Ulyanovsk, Dubna, Saransk and San Jose. Developers and researches in these cities will be working in parallel to find solutions to various challenges. Four engineers from Russia will travel to San Jose to receive training on using IMI’s high performance state-of-the-art combinatorial platform for conducting research around thin-film coatings. Several graduate and undergraduate students from the Republic of Mordovia will also intern with Intermolecular where they will learn how to formulate a problem and model experiments in power electronics.
For the first three years Intermolecular, Inc. will refer initial orders from world class market leaders to the high-tech company. In addition to these orders, a number of applications will be developed to further the interests of Russian companies and research teams.
Our business model helps customers save resources in the early stages of research by leveraging the capabilities of a distributed combinatorial platform that provides access to world class technologies at low prices. The business model anticipates that the high –tech company will realize revenue from royalties when the clients start full-scale product manufacturing utilizing the distributed platform technology.
The distributed combinatorial platform will make it possible to simultaneously plan and conduct dozens of experiments by applying sets of multiple nanosized films. “Thus, a researcher will get results 100x times faster” - emphasized Andrey Redkin, CEO of the Ulyanovsk NanoCenter.
