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.
ABOUT THE SPEAKER:
Larry Takiff, PhD
Larry Takiff is co-Founder and President of Akita Innovations LLC, a small business in Massachusetts that develops and produces novel chemicals and materials for government and commercial customers. He founded Akita in 2012 with Lawrence Hancock after working at Polaroid Corporation, Aprilis Inc., and Nomadics/ICx/FLIR Systems. He is a chemist by training and a businessman by necessity. At Akita, he has initiated and led projects in materials R&D and pilot production for a variety of government agencies/DoD components and for commercial partners. Currently he is leading an effort to scale production of a decontamination fluid for the Defense Threat Reduction Agency (DTRA), and a FlexTech project to advance the TRL/MRL of a dielectric ink for printed electronics, as well as several Phase II SBIR development projects.
Join us for this insightful Master Class with Larry Takiff, PhD, Co-Founder and CEO of Akita Innovations LLC, as he explores the path from lab-scale breakthroughs to scalable material solutions across high-impact industries. Dr. Takiff will dive into the challenges and strategies of transitioning novel materials such as those used in printed electronics, semiconductors, aerospace, and medical devices into commercial success.

Fundamentals of Vacuum Technology and Helium Leak Detection is a comprehensive course designed to provide attendees with a practical understanding of vacuum systems, leak formation, leak measurement, and helium leak detection techniques used in semiconductor, aerospace, research, manufacturing, and high-technology industries. Participants will learn the principles of vacuum generation, gas flow, outgassing, permeation, conductance, pumping technologies, and helium mass spectrometer leak detection. The course also covers leak rate determination, industry standards, troubleshooting techniques, and real-world leak detection applications to help improve equipment reliability, product quality, and process performance.
What Attendees Will Learn
Upon completion of this course, attendees will be able to:
Define leaks, leak flow, virtual leaks, and their impact on vacuum systems and product quality.
Understand contaminant sizes, equivalent leak hole sizes, and leak-related defects.
Explain vacuum fundamentals, including pressure measurement, gas density, vacuum scales, and temperature effects.
Identify sources of gas loads, outgassing, permeation, and virtual leaks, and apply methods to minimize their impact.
Understand vacuum flow regimes, conductance, and how they influence pumping performance.
Compare rough vacuum and high-vacuum pumping technologies, including rotary vane, scroll, Roots, and turbomolecular pumps.
Understand the operation and capabilities of helium mass spectrometer leak detectors.
Explain helium properties, sources, applications, and why helium is the preferred tracer gas for leak testing.
Select and apply appropriate helium leak testing methods, including sniffing, accumulation, hard vacuum, bombing, and split-flow techniques.
Interpret leak detector response times, background helium levels, and published leak detector specifications.
Establish leak rate acceptance criteria and understand common leak rate units and conversions.
Troubleshoot high helium background conditions and improve leak detection sensitivity.
Apply leak detection principles to real-world vacuum systems and large vacuum chamber testing applications.
Who Should Attend
This course is intended for:
Semiconductor equipment engineers and technicians
Vacuum system engineers and maintenance personnel
Manufacturing, process, and reliability engineers
Field service engineers and installation specialists
Quality, test, and validation engineers
Research and development personnel
Aerospace and defense manufacturing personnel
Leak detection and vacuum equipment users
