Xallent Successfully Installs Fine-Pitch Testing System at ASU’s Defense Microelectronics Hub

April 4, 2025 | ALBANY, NYXallent has successfully completed the installation and training of its SAKYIWA NanoProber system at the Arizona State University’s Southwest Advanced Prototyping (SWAP) Hub. SWAP is a critical partner, serving as one of eight regional innovation hubs supported by the Department of Defense’s Microelectronics Commons. This national initiative is designed to accelerate the development and production of microelectronics vital to U.S. security and defense.

The SAKYIWA NanoProber utilizes advanced 10-micrometer pitch 4-point probes for the rapid, economical measurement of sheet resistance in thin films and 2D materials. This cutting-edge technology will empower SWAP researchers to dramatically shorten learning cycles by reducing essential testing times from over 12 hours to under 5 minutes, rapidly accelerating key microelectronics innovations for national security.
