Carsten, I have to second (or third...) all comments made about actual, operative 8" MEMS fabs. There are very few. The only one in Europe is right in your back yard - Alcatel Optronics (ex Kymata) in Livingston. MEMSCAP in Crolles is the only other one in Europe coming on-line. With the current state of business, any mainstream wafer fab will be happy to take on foundry business for specific processes. Contact me off-list if you need more details. cheers, klaus -- (TEEL) Tokyo Electron Europe Limited PVD Process Support (ex MRC) Klaus Beschorner Tel +49-7033-45683 Drosselweg 6 Fax +49-7033-45631 71120 Grafenau, Germany Mobile +49-174 315 7754
