Black Semiconductor

Black Semiconductor (operating at blacksemi.com) is a deep-tech company engineered for next-generation compute architectures. Founded in 2020 by Daniel Schall and Sebastian Schall and headquartered in Aachen, Germany, Black Semiconductor uses the 2D material graphene to create ultra-fast, energy-efficient, and high-speed photonics directly onto electronic chips. Under the hood, the company's IGP technology enables the native integration of photonics onto the glass panel interposer. This allows innovators to rethink compute architectures and develop ultra-fast, energy-efficient optical chips. Backed by EUR 254.4 million in funding.
