Asymmetric bias power is replacing traditional RF bias power in critical semiconductor processes due to its ability to provide tailored ion energy distributions (IEDs) to the wafer surface. A particle-in-cell model compares IEDs from different bias waveforms.
Accelerate Failure Analysis of Heterogeneously Integrated Packages with AI-Powered Correlative Microscopy
A three-step physical failure analysis process dedicated to analyzing fine structures and defects in hybrid bonding and FOWLP packages demonstrates high accuracy and precision, while AI-powered reconstruction accelerates the speed of 3D X-ray scans.
New Techniques Hold the Key to Mitigating Environmental, Human Health Impacts
New advanced manufacturing techniques can help create more environmentally- and human health-friendly products, particularly by reducing chemical use and exposure.
How Edge AI Is Redefining What’s Possible in Semiconductor Design
AI is no longer confined to the cloud. Real-time decision-making, bandwidth limitations, and privacy concerns have driven the demand for edge AI—where computations occur locally on the device rather than being sent to centralized data centers.
Reducing Scope 2 Emissions in Semiconductor Manufacturing – A Happy Coincidence
Introducing new technologies to reduce emissions not only provides an environmental benefit but can lead to significant financial benefits as well. Materials, utilities, and energy all have a real cost, and reducing their consumption significantly reduces total cost of ownership (TCoO).
