Getter Solutions

Stockcode:

A “getter” is a material that is hermetically sealed into a device to maintain the purity of the atmosphere within the device. The use of getters within microelectronic and optoelectronic hermetic devices is a well-known solution to capture contaminants present at sealing or which outgas during the life of the device. With proven reliability, getters provide a simple solution, often targeting a narrow range of contaminants. Qnnect has provided getter solutions to its customers for over 20 years to its customers in defense & aerospace, medical, optical networking and energy markets.

For 20 years, Qnnect worked both with its internal development team and its partners to provide superior getter solutions. One such key strategic partnership is with Johnson Matthey, a leading specialty chemicals company. Since 1999, Johnson Matthey and Hermetic Solutions Group have combined their advanced technology capabilities to provide robust offerings consisting of a Johnson Matthey Protelec getter material and a Qnnect hermetic lid.
