Based in Brooklyn’s historic Navy Yard, CubeFabs builds modular semiconductor micro-factories and the AI systems that control them. The company traces its work back to 2010 and uses its nControl platform to monitor and improve production in real time, with a focus on difficult next-generation materials such as gallium oxide and other ultra-wide-bandgap semiconductors. CubeFabs emerged from Nanotronics and combines factory design with process-control software to take materials from research and development toward scalable production.
