scia Systems’ high-precision ion beam process solutions are enabling the automotive, cloud computing, AR/MR, and mobile communications industries

Chemnitz, Germany, July 1, 2024 – scia Systems GmbH, an industry leader in advanced ion beam and plasma process equipment for microelectronics, MEMS, and precision optics industries, today announced that it will highlight key advances in ion beam processing for semiconductor, sensor and photonic integrated circuit (PIC) manufacturing at SEMICON West 2024. The premier microelectronics event will be held July 9-11, 2024, at the Moscone Center in San Francisco, Calif. scia Systems’ high-precision solutions are playing an essential role in enabling many of today’s high-growth consumer and industrial applications.

According to Dr. Michael Zeuner, CEO of scia Systems, “As semiconductors, sensors, and optical devices increase in complexity due to smaller features, new exotic materials, and more layers and complex structures, the processes used to manufacture them require higher levels of precision. Our advances in ultra-precision ion beam process technologies are enabling manufacturers’ success in producing these devices, which are driving cloud computing, augmented/mixed reality (AR/MR), automotive, telecommunications, and many other industries. A case in point, every modern cell phone has components that have been manufactured using a scia Systems product. We look forward to highlighting these solutions, as well as the many high-growth applications that they enable, at SEMICON West – the premier event for the semiconductor ecosystem.”

Ion beam etching solutions enable significant growth in photonic integrated circuits
Demand for PICs is growing rapidly in telecommunications and data centers due to their wide bandwidth, low transmission loss, and numerous other advantages over traditional electronic integrated circuits. Integrating new materials, material stacks, and designs requires new etching solutions. scia Systems’ advanced ion beam etching and trimming processes enable manufacturing of three-dimensional optoelectronic microstructures for PICs, such as waveguides and other optical components. Reducing microroughness by ion beam trimming is another promising application area that enhances the production of high-performance PICs. Further applications include nano-structured surface relief gratings for AR/MR systems, and surface form error correction for telescope mirrors, X-ray optics, lenses, and conventional optics.

Ion beam etching technology produces GMR/TMR sensors for mega markets
High-precision sensors that use magnetic storage, most notably giant magnetoresistance (GMR) and tunnel magnetoresistance (TMR) sensors, are used to detect any type of motion including proximity, rotations or vibrations. These have been rapidly adopted across a wide variety of industries and applications, including automotive electronics, industrial equipment, and cloud storage. However, the complex, multi-layer composition of these sensors creates significant challenges for traditional chemical and dry etching processes, which have difficulty processing magnetic materials. scia Systems overcomes these limitations with its high-precision ion beam etching technology, enabling the manufacture of high-performance GMR sensors for flexible and wearable electronics, including AR/MR headsets, and TMR sensors for Internet of Things (IoT), automotive, smart home, eMobility, and many other applications.

Ion beam etching solutions for precision reverse engineering of ICs
Reverse engineering is an essential step in semiconductor manufacturing. By conducting verification, failure analysis, and research of internal device structures, engineers can isolate and troubleshoot problems to improve manufacturing yields. Reverse engineering involves exposing internal components, delayering to analyze each layer of the device, imaging, and post-processing. Conventional delayering processes such as wet chemical etching, CMP or plasma etching are often expensive, error-prone, and limited in application. scia Systems’ ion beam etching technology enables precise processing within the micro- and nanometer-size range and atomic-level-thickness range for different materials at once.

These new AI EDA companies use Verific’s unsurpassed language support for fast, accurate large language model (LLM) development, speeding time to market for products that range from functional verification, chip design to code development.

AI EDA providers PrimisAI and Silimate, founded by former chip designers, will be in the Verific booth (#1414) AI showcase at the 61st Design Automation Conference (DAC) June 24-26 at Moscone West in San Francisco.

“This new and exciting market segment is about to change the entire makeup of the EDA industry,” says Rick Carlson, vice president of Verific. “We are about to see a variety of tools, technologies and methodologies destined to change the way chip design and verification is done.”

Introducing the EDA Startups Ushering in the Era of AI EDA
PrimisAI and Silimate will be showcased in the Verific DAC booth and present their unique use of AI technology to eliminate error-prone repetitive tasks for efficient and more productive chip design.

PrimisAI offers a generative AI solution for chip design with advanced language-to-code and language-to-verification capabilities through its interactive AI assistant to address complex hardware challenges across the entire design stack from concept to bitstream/GDSII. RapidGPT, unveiled earlier this year, lets engineers interact with their design and the entire EDA ecosystem with a natural language interface, boosting productivity and accelerating time-to-market. Founded by serial entrepreneur Naveed Sherwani who serves as chairman and CEO, PrimisAI is backed by two early-stage investors.

“Verific’s front-end platform lived up to its well-earned status of industry standard as we implemented it in RapidGPT,” remarks Pierre-Emmanuel Gaillardon, CSO of PrimisAI. “The robustness and quality of the Verific front-end platform ensured we would deliver a tool that would give engineers a seamless and efficient workflow.”

Silimate, backed by Y Combinator, is building the co-pilot for chip designers to help build better chips faster. Silimate finds functional bugs, predicts power, performance and area (PPA) issues, and recommends real and accurate fixes in real time, and is already being used by chip teams building complex IP and SoCs. Co-founders Ann Wu and Akash Levy previously built chips and EDA tools at Apple, Stanford, NVIDIA, and Synopsys.

“Verific consistently produces quality products and offers exceptional quality support,” comments Wu. “Their parsers are fantastic and result in very quick tool bring-up times for our customers.”

Metalware co-founded by Ryan Chow and Andrew Nedea is another Verific front-end platform user. It was started with initial funding from Y Combinator with the mission to accelerate embedded development using AI technology after personally experiencing repeated bottlenecks in embedded software at SpaceX. The Metalware AI EDA tools help designers rapidly write HDL and embedded C/C++ by combining insights from manuals, datasheets and code, offering 10x faster development by automating low-level programming.

“Verific embodies our stated goals to reduce the time it takes to design chips and systems,” affirms Chow. “Verific and its team of experienced EDA engineers have shown repeatedly that its front-end platforms enable a project that would normally take days to be completed in hours.”

Another AI EDA startup in stealth mode is also a new Verific user. Details will be announced shortly.
