Advanced Materials Startup Inpria Brings In $23.5 Million

Inpria announced it has secured $23.5 million in Series B financing. Four investors contributed to the round: Samsung Ventures, Applied Ventures, Intel Capital, and JSR Corporation.

Inpria Corporation is a pioneer in extending semiconductor lithography with inorganic photoresists and other thin-films for nanoscale patterning. Inpria’s patented photo-condensed molecular oxides offer customers the unique ability to deposit, directly from solution, atomically smooth, intrinsically dense, and directly photo-patternable metal oxide films, enabling advanced performance with simplified processing.

In its announcement, the company said Inpria will use the funds to complete its pilot manufacturing facility and to commence commercial production.
