"Alternative thinking with modern old devices"
Mission
Vardamir is a semiconductor IP venture built on the belief that the most profound discoveries arise not from new tools alone, but from asking older questions in newer ways. We work at the intersection of surface physics, two-dimensional materials, and precision instrumentation.
Our focus is molybdenum disulfide (MoS₂) — a transition metal dichalcogenide with extraordinary electronic, optical, and mechanical properties. We approach it the way a natural philosopher might: methodically, with rigour, and with genuine curiosity.
We are early. We are deliberate. And we intend to build something that endures.
Technology
MoS₂ is a layered semiconductor. At monolayer thickness, it undergoes an indirect-to-direct bandgap transition — unlocking properties invisible in bulk form. This makes it uniquely suited for next-generation transistors, compute-in-memory architectures, and edge AI accelerators.
Our approach couples device fabrication with novel characterisation workflows, enabling atomic-resolution insight into surface phenomena that conventional methods cannot resolve — and translating those insights directly into benchmarkable hardware IP.
Precise growth and isolation of MoS₂ at monolayer scale, enabling the emergent electronic properties that define next-generation device architectures.
Gate-tunable conductance states used as synaptic weights — collapsing inference energy by orders of magnitude compared to conventional CMOS NPUs.
Targeting autonomous systems, space, and defence markets where power, size, and radiation hardness are non-negotiable constraints.
