About

CMOS++ is a strategic research cluster at Tyndall National Institute, University College Cork, established in 2020. CMOS++ brings together over 15 Principal Investigators, aligning the research of their teams (over 40 researchers) around the CMOS++ Programme with the aim to enable Deep Tech innovation  for Information Processing Interfacing with CMOS and Beyond.

The CMOS++ Programme is organised around frontier research in enabling capabilities:

Our objective is to develop technologies and applications for:

Tyndall researchers within CMOS++ are in a unique position to realise such platforms and engage with industry to accelerate research path-finding and translate to innovations.
