ATLANT 3D Partners with University of Manchester’s Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre
Strategic Alliance Pairs Atomic-Precision Technology with Advanced Materials Expertise to Accelerate Innovation
Copenhagen, Denmark & Manchester, UK – February 25, 2025 – In a move that could accelerate the development of everything from more efficient solar cells to quantum computers, ATLANT 3D has joined the University of Manchester’s Graphene Engineering Innovation Centre (GEIC) as an Associate Technology Partner. Associate Technology Partners are technology providers who collaborate with GEIC with a primary aim of developing GEIC capabilities. The partnership combines GEIC’s world-leading expertise in graphene and 2D materials with ATLANT 3D’s atomic-scale manufacturing system, which can precisely build complex material structures atom by atom.
“The biggest challenge in advanced materials isn’t just discovery, it’s turning laboratory breakthroughs into practical technologies,” says James Baker, CEO of Graphene at Manchester. “By working with ATLANT 3D and integrating their cutting-edge manufacturing system into the GEIC ecosystem, we can offer our researchers and industry partners a rapid, precise method for testing and validating new material combinations. We also look forward to enabling the fostering of new research opportunities with the National Graphene Institute, further broadening our collaborative efforts. This collaboration will help accelerate breakthroughs in energy storage, computing, and sustainable technologies, ultimately bringing innovative applications to market faster than ever before.”
Through this partnership, ATLANT 3D will provide access to its advanced atomic layer deposition technology, paving the way for the development of revolutionary electronic, semiconductor and energy-based applications. This collaboration is expected to accelerate the transition of 2D materials from laboratory research to scalable, high-performance industrial solutions.
The GEIC supports organisations develop and launch new technologies, products and processes to exploit the remarkable properties of graphene and other 2D materials, for the betterment of humanity and the planet. As an Associate Technology Partner working closely with other GEIC members, ATLANT 3D will expose its state-of-the-art technology to the GEIC ecosystem, supporting rapid prototyping and enhancing material innovation.
“Working with GEIC connects our technology with the world’s foremost experts in advanced materials,” says Dr. Maksym Plakhotnyuk, Founder and CEO, ATLANT 3D. “GEIC’s deep understanding of 2D materials, paired with our ability to precisely control material deposition at the atomic scale, opens new possibilities for developing practical applications that could transform industries from computing to clean energy.”
ATLANT 3D has mastered control of matter at the atomic scale, enabling the creation of advanced materials and devices with unprecedented precision. The company’s breakthrough technology allows research teams and manufacturers to build what was previously impossible – from next-generation quantum computers to devices that can operate in the harsh conditions of space – while significantly reducing resource consumption. Based in Copenhagen with operations in the US and UK, ATLANT 3D partners with research institutions and manufacturers to expand the boundaries of technological possibility.
