Flexible hybrid electronics (FHE) is an emerging manufacturing methodology that combines the best of conventional and printed circuitry. By enabling flexibility and digital manufacturing without compromising on processing capability, it promises to remove the constraints of rigid PCBs while reducing costs and hence enable new applications.

This webinar from Dr Matthew Dyson of IDTechEx provided the status of FHE, including examples that are already commercialized.

Standards and other attributes required for mass manufacturing was outlined, and the scope for FHE to be used for novel applications (including harsh environments) assessed. Finally, a roadmap covering the near, medium, and long term was presented, including how FHE development fits with the ongoing development of heterogeneous integration.

ABOUT THE SPEAKER

Matthew is a Senior Technology Analyst at IDTechEx, specializing in printed/organic/flexible/hybrid electronics and sensors. He has an MRes and PhD in Physics from Imperial College London, which aimed to better establish processing/structure/property relationships in organic semiconductors. This was followed by two years post-doctoral researcher at Eindhoven Technical University in the Netherlands, focusing primarily on organic photodetectors (OPDs). His academic research, which has been cited over 500 times, also included work on perovskite photovoltaics and aggregation induced emission materials.

At IDTechEx, Matthew analyses technical innovations and applications across the printed/flexible/hybrid landscape, attending multiple conferences and interviewing companies to establish a clear picture of the technical and commercial landscape. This analysis is published in reports on topics such as 3D electronics and printed/flexible sensors, and applied to consulting projects evaluating commercialization opportunities across printed/flexible electronics. He also manages a team of analysts covering wearable technologies, AR/VR, and emerging photovoltaics.

Semiconductor technology advancements and added device complexity put ever more stringent requirements on semiconductor manufacturing process monitor and control. Pressure exerted on devices during grinding, CMP, polishing, lamination, bonding, pick and place encapsulation, electrical testing, and packaging can cause failures that may not even be measurable using conventional sensors.

Currently chip test, monitoring and packaging process control is widely done via optical displacement sensors and electrical testing which do not adequately measure the pressure on devices. Without the ability to adequately monitor these processes, root cause failure identification is challenging and maintaining or improving process quality and yield are difficult.

In this webinar the piezoelectric sensor technology will be described and how it used to improve chip test, monitoring and packaging semiconductor processes.

As we approach the inflection point of explosive expansion of innovations and electronic products into our global society, and the plateauing of CMOS’s scaling advantage, continued progress now requires a different phase of innovation.  The Heterogeneous Integration Roadmap (HIR) provides a long-term vision for the electronics industry to move beyond CMOS scaling, identifying difficult future challenges and potential solutions.  Heterogeneous Integration is and will be the key technology direction going forward. This webinar will provide a heterogeneous integration overview and how material suppliers are responding to this dynamic technology environment.

SiC—Silicon Carbide Webinar #6: Basal Plane Dislocation Defects and the Impact on Device Performance

 

Silicon carbide (SiC) chips are displacing their incumbent silicon counterparts in several high-volume power applications. As SiC market share continues to grow, the industry is lifting remaining barriers to mass commercialization including the higher-than-silicon chip cost that increases disproportionately with area, defects that limit chip yield and area, reliability and ruggedness concerns, and the need for a trained workforce to skillfully insert SiC into power electronics circuits.

With respect to fabrication, the SiC industry is successfully leveraging the fully depreciated legacy silicon fab infrastructure and is making the relatively small financial investments that allow mature silicon fabs to process SiC. A key aspect of cost-effective fabrication is limiting defects that degrade device performance and compromise yields. Over the past twenty years, significant progress has been made in improving SiC material quality, and Basal-Plane-Dislocations (BPDs) are the last major catastrophic defect. In this presentation, I will discuss how bipolar-current induced electron-hole pair recombination at basal plane dislocations generates stacking fault (SF) formation and expansion, which degrade on-state current conduction. I will present and interpret experimental data of several transistors that exhibit severe BPD related electrical degradation, and of others that demonstrate “intermediate” or no degradation at all. For impacted transistors, I will identify and analyze the electrical characteristics that exhibit degradation as well as those that remain unaffected under bipolar stress. Finally, I will show that BPD related degradation is fully reversed by high temperature annealing, and the transistor returns to its original “undamaged” operational state.

In 2019, SEMI launched a special thought leadership” initiative – SEMI Think Tanks – where the leading minds of our industry gather to address the challenges and opportunities for the semiconductor and broader electronics industries with a 20-30 year horizon. SEMI is honored to be the rallying force behind bringing together the industry stalwarts and thought leaders to share their prophetic views in our pioneering Think Tank series on The Future of Computing.

In December 2021, we shared with you an introduction to the SEMI “Future of Computing” Think Tank, a thought leadership group that is tasked with creating an “Intellectual Blueprint” of what computing might look like in 2040 – and what the semiconductor industry can do now to get ready for the next era of disruption.

In this 2^nd session, Dr. Alessandro Curioni, Vice President of Research Europe and Africa and Director of Research Lab in Switzerland at IBM, will host and showcase the progress the group has made in 2022. Next, Jim Sexton, Department Group Manager of Data Centric Systems at IBM, will introduce a White Paper the Think Tank is currently drafting as a first steppingstone towards an industry blueprint. Both he and James Clarke, Director of Quantum Hardware, Intel will then go deeper into two of the White Paper sections, one on Classical, the other on Quantum Computing.  

Reserve your spot now to learn about how you and your company can contribute to shaping the future!
