Improved materials are required for progress in fields including printed electronics, semiconductors, aerospace & defense, energy, and life sciences/medical care.  Developing such materials and chemicals involves considerations of performance, cost, manufacturability, safety, and stability.  Scaling production of new materials is a very different challenge than making 50 grams in a laboratory.  Transitioning/commercializing new materials is a separate effort where intellectual property, regulation, quality control, system documentation, supply chain development, and business relationships become key.  This talk will address these aspects of introducing a new material into our enterprise.

This cutting-edge panel-level wet processing demo tool handles large 510 × 515 mm substrates, delivering world class, high density Through Glass Vias (TGV) formation and ultra-small taper angles essential for advanced packaging in high performance computing.

Gütenbach, Germany – July 15, 2025 – RENA Technologies, a leading manufacturer of wet processing equipment for semiconductor and advanced packaging production, today announced the ramp-up of its dedicated glass core substrates facility in Germany. This new line, designed for substrates up to 510 × 515 mm, immediately opens for customer test lots, underscoring RENA's proven expertise in glass processing and creating new opportunities for process development and customer sample production. “As experts in precision wet processing, we can now offer large panel demo services for high aspect ratio through glass via (TGV) formation on various glass types,” said Dr. Holger H. Kuehnlein, SVP Technology at RENA. “Our alkaline based TGV process delivers extremely small taper angles, low sidewall roughness, and exceptional dimensional control at panel scale, enabling high density via applications. Customers can begin validating these capabilities today.”

Why Glass, and Why Wet Processing?
Glass substrates offer significant advantages for advanced electronics, including ultra-flat surfaces, low dielectric loss, and superior thermal stability. However, realizing these benefits at scale requires defect free surface preparation and the formation of uniform, high density TGVs with minimal taper angles. RENA's wet processing systems are specifically designed to address both challenges:
1. Surface Engineering – Our systems ensure precise cleaning and stress relief across 600 x 600mm panels with submicron total thickness variation (TTV).
2. Chemically Formed TGVs – Following initial laser modifications performed by our specialist partners, RENA’s proprietary chemistries form, enlarge and shape each via to exact specifications. This process consistently delivers very small taper angles and smooth sidewalls, ideal for subsequent metallization.

By collaborating with leading German and international laser partners, RENA offers customers the flexibility to choose their preferred laser vendor while ensuring all downstream wet processing steps are handled by our advanced equipment.

Key Highlights of the New Facility
Panel Size: Focus on 510 x 515mm and up to 600 × 600mm, smaller possible
Tool Set: Alkaline TGV etching, advanced rinse/dry, optical inspection & metrology
Field-Proven Recipes: Process conditions migrated from high volume tools
On-Demand Access: Customers may run demo substrates, qualify custom chemistries, or request full process flows
Sustainability: Low temperature chemistries and closed loop water reclamation reduce energy and ultrapure water (UPW) consumption

Market Impact
High-Performance Computing (HPC) as well as 5G/6G RF modules increasingly require new package designs, including panel-level fan-out and trend towards more complex chiplet architectures. Glass substrates, long considered the “holy grail” for core and interposer material, effectively eliminate the limitations imposed by warpage and dielectric loss in organic substrates. By combining laser modification from our vetted partners with RENA's chemistry driven via shaping, designers can now validate glass packaging concepts on the lab-platform proven at 600x600mm dimensions.
“With this lab-tool, we've created a great opportunity for semiconductor manufacturers to perform demos on panel level glass substrates,” added Peter Schneidewind, CEO of RENA. “From surface preparation to via formation, our wet process flow is ready for customers substrates to support TGV technology breakthroughs. This is world class made in Black Forest.”

Availability & Engagement Model
• Testing available now
• Flexible collaboration: Bring your own laser modified substrates, or leverage RENA’s ecosystem partners to benefit from joint process development support, and metrology services for process validation.

Espoo, Finland, July 14, 2025 – Beneq, a global leader in Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) technology, is proud to announce significant progress in the microLED display market, underscored by repeat orders from industry-leading technology innovators. MicroLED technology is revolutionizing the future of displays across sectors including consumer electronics, augmented and virtual reality (AR/VR), and the automotive industry. With unparalleled brightness, contrast, energy efficiency, and durability, microLED represents a paradigm shift in how displays are designed and manufactured – enabling ultra-fine pixel resolution, seamless scalability, and longer device lifetimes. As demand for next-generation display solutions accelerates, microLED is poised to become the backbone of future visual interfaces.

According to Yole Group, global microLED display shipments are projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 180.6% from 2022, reaching 42.4 million units by 2029. Despite its promise, microLED development presents formidable challenges, particularly in scaling down pixel sizes to below 10 micrometers while maintaining uniformity, stability, and manufacturability. As pixels shrink, precise material control and surface passivation become critical to device performance. Atomic Layer Deposition offers a unique solution, enabling ultra-thin, conformal coatings with atomic-level precision. ALD addresses key barriers in microLED production, such as surface defect passivation, sidewall protection, transparent conductive oxides and final passivation, thereby improving both device efficiency and long-term reliability.

“Our top-tier customers rely on ALD technology to advance monolithic integration of microLEDs and driver electronics on a single chip. This integration paves the way for a new class of smaller, more powerful display products – delivering faster data transfer, lower power consumption, and a significantly more compact footprint,” says Mikko Söderlund, Head of Semiconductor ALD Sales.

“These repeat orders validate Beneq’s solution and demonstrate the company’s commitment to support customers through both the demanding development phase and the critical transition to volume manufacturing.”

Beneq’s Transform® ALD cluster platform stands at the forefront of this technological evolution. Designed for high-throughput production and advanced technology development, the Beneq Transform combines modularity, flexibility, and productivity, making it an ideal tool for microLED manufacturers. Its multi-chamber architecture supports a wide range of materials and processes, enabling customers to fine-tune optical and electrical properties while seamlessly scaling from lab to fab. By equipping microLED pioneers with the tools needed to overcome manufacturing barriers, the Beneq Transform is helping accelerate the commercialization of microLED displays – paving the way for brighter, smarter, and more sustainable electronic experiences.
