Explore. Discover. Innovate.
attocube systems AG has an international reputation for innovation, precision and excellence in the broad field of nanotechnology applications. The company was founded in 2001 as a spin-off from the CeNS (Center for NanoScience) at the Ludwig-Maximilian University, one of Germany’s top universities. The groundbreaking innovation was the development of ultra-compact, nano-precise positioning devices, which were – for the first time ever – adaptable for extreme conditions such as cryogenic temperatures, ultra high vacuum environments and the highest magnetic fields. attocube has two branch offices in the US: in New York and in Berkeley, San Fransisco.

In addition, attocube develops and produces a broad range of scanning probe microscopes used in fundamental research and materials science. Another significant segment of the portfolio is attocube’s first class sensor solutions. Just like the nanopositioners, these sensors are used in a variety of industrial applications, such as the semiconductor industry, micromachining, life sciences and telecommunications.

attocube has already won prestigious prizes and awards, the most important ones being the Bavarian Innovation Award (2006), the German Award for Outstanding Entrepreneurs (2008), and the TOP100 Innovation Award (2013).
