Leading Carbon Nanotube Manufacturer Licenses Technology for Semiconductor Applications

Unidym, Inc., a majority-owned subsidiary of Arrowhead Research Corporation, announced today that it has completed a non-exclusive license for certain intellectual property in its portfolio to one of the world’s leaders in advanced semiconductor materials for high performance integrated circuits.

"This licensing agreement is an excellent illustration of our strategy, in which we monetize our intellectual property in product areas outside of our core vertical application segments, through licensing our technology to third parties,” said Art Swift, Unidym's president and CEO. “Our foundational patent portfolio covers many critical aspects of carbon nanotube manufacturing, processing and product applications.”
