SEGMENTS
Traditional "front-end" processing technologies—including lithography, deposition, and etch technologies—are continually pushed by the demands of the semiconductor industry's pursuit of Moore's Law and other emerging markets and technologies that, like the semiconductor industry, are seeking further improvements in device design, performance, and manufacturing. As semiconductor devices look to move beyond the 22nm node, the industry is already well-focused on the manufacturing challenges and technologies needed to get to the next nodes. Critical technology issues on display and under discussion at SEMICON West 2012 include:
-
-
- 3D IC: TSV and other 3D configurations
- Solutions and challenges beyond 22nm
- Gate-first/gate-last
- Multi-gate transistor technologies (FinFET, etc.)
- Lithography (immersion, double-patterning, EUV, e-beam, imprint, source/mask optimization-SMO)
- EUV technologies: Laser Produced Plasma (LPP), Discharge Produced Plasma (DPP)
- Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD)
- GaN
- New manufacturing technologies for logic ICs and memory ICs
- New memory technologies: RRAMs, STT-RAMs, PC-RAMs, CAT
- 450mm
