† Are you a UK university or new SME user?

All UK universities are eligible for a 50% discount, while UK SMEs may be eligible if they are engaging with CORNERSTONE for the first time.
This discount applies to the cost of this MPW run with support from the CORNERSTONE Photonics Innovation Centre (C-PIC) (EP/Z531066/1), funded by UK Research and Innovation. Support will be provided under the Subsidy Control Act (2022) via Minimal Financial Assistance. To be eligible you will need to demonstrate the potential impact of receiving assistance against one or more of the following categories: impact on jobs and skills, access to new technology, accelerating product development. Following submission of your sign-up form, you will receive correspondence with more details of how this support will be provided. For UK companies, the support is only available for first time MPW users with a UK design/development/manufacturing presence and only for prototyping and product development.

To receive Design Rule Check (DRC) feedback from the CORNERSTONE team, users must submit their designs no later than the design submission deadline. Submissions received after the design submission deadline will not be checked against design rules; therefore, any fabrication failures related to design rule violations will be at the users’ own risk. The CORNERSTONE team would be grateful for the opportunity to work with you prior to the submission deadline to ensure your designs pass DRC.
