BIOGRAPHY
Karel Côté obtained a Physics degree at University of Sherbrooke (1997) and a master’s degree in biophysics/physiology at University of Sherbrooke (2000). He then joined Mitel Semiconductor Bromont, Qc, Canada plant (that would become Teledyne DALSA) as a phololithography scientist specializing in process/masks integration, 2D/3Dmetrology, and alignment/exposure until 2014. During this time, Teledyne-DALSA went from CMOS/CCD microfabrication to almost uniquely MEMS fabrication using legacy CMOS tool. He then joined the NRC-Canada as a microfabrication specialist for printable electronics and Biochips for 2 years.
In 2016, Karel finally joined the MiQro Innovation Collaborative Center [C2MI] were he acts as a microfabrication expert where he develops specialized MEMS process and help define next microfabrication axes and equipment selection in the rapid growth of this “one-of-a-kind” development center.
