Semiconductor logic and memory technology development continues to push the limits of process complexity and cost, especially as the industry migrates to the 5 nm node and beyond. Optimization of the ...

A silicon wafer is a thin slice of crystalline silicon typically grown using the Czochralski process, which involves pulling a crystal seed from a molten silicon bath. A silicon wafer is a thin slice ...

This edition explores how materials science, nanofabrication, and workforce development intersect to support a resilient U.S.

Lam Research has introduced Dextro, which the company claims is the semiconductor industry's first collaborative robot (cobot) designed to optimize critical maintenance tasks on wafer fabrication ...

Imec has achieved the first successful wafer-scale fabrication of solid-state nanopores using EUV lithography on 300mm wafers. This innovation transforms nanopore technology from a lab-scale concept ...

The lack of methods for preparing miniature lasers directly on silicon wafers is holding back photonic technology in a range of applications, including machine learning. The solution could be to ...
