Bridging the Gap Between Engineering and the Life Sciences

OVERVIEW

The Symposium brought together experts to share their work and identify gaps to accelerating the development of technologies and optimize health outcomes.  Topics covered included using AI in diagnostics and decision-making using AI; data fusion for real time diagnosis; and the impact of these technologies on rural and decentralized healthcare.

Layered on top was the topic of performance augmentation by reading biochemical markers, digital genomics, using new and proposed bio-sensors and wearables.  We heard about tools and technologies available to assess physiological markers that are correlated to health and wellness such as stress, fatigue, chronic disease and cognition. 

The forum focused on bringing together the players across the growing range of industries that are advancing human monitoring applications to:

• share pre-competitive ideas that may be applied to product development
• assess roadblocks in bringing human monitoring products to market
• form partnerships that have become key in overcoming obstacles to successful manufacturing and product development

Innovation for a Transforming World—Now On-Demand Through August 14, 2021

The transformation of our industry never ceases. As the data storm builds, the drivers for digital disruption are coming together at the first global conference for Innovation for a Transforming World.

Accelerated by the response to the global pandemic, the innovations enabled by the semiconductor ecosystem continue to evolve at breakneck speed. The crises of the past year emerged as a powerful force that hastened the merging of the physical and digital worlds. This brought dramatic changes to our ways of life.

At the tip of this rapidly building iceberg of challenges and opportunities, every business is weighing the most favorable blend of preservation and innovation. The Innovation for a Transforming World virtual event will explore the optimal balance of resources for both preserving current expertise and customers, while seeing where to innovate to engage the next technology demands and fortunes.

It is a fusion of strategy and successful tactics. It begins with design, materials, workforce, advanced manufacturing, and now, it adds utilization of unprecedented volumes of data, via the Cloud and AI. Not only will we forecast equipment, fab, packaging and semiconductor market demand, but also trends for emerging markets and design.

Offering insights for the digital next steps, the collaborative value of SEMI’s members provides the foundation that has helped to deliver the most productive half century in history. This platform and its tremendous collective assets will serve to power the global economy for the next 50 years.

Going forward, the space between the physical and digital will shrink even further, enabling us to do things we’ve never done before. Unheard-of innovations will materialize with greater frequency and immeasurable impact. Sharing best practices that can be applied today is critical to transformations.

Co-Sponsors

and

In a flash last March, employees worked from home, and teleconferencing became a way of life. Executives adopted new guidelines and ensured employees had the proper technology and secure networks to be productive. The workforce adapted, engineers are designing around the world around the clock, and employers are more open to where people work.

Learn about—

• Increased productivity

• New physical office space setup

• Using the cloud to overcome technology issues

• Corporate travel

• Plus more

Learn why some companies offer more flexibility for employees to work from home at least part of the time. Also, why others may not require new employees to re-locate; perhaps something technology has made easier.

Abstract

Fabrication in the cleanroom, and in the newer printed electronics tools, are often a function of time-varying parameters of the equipment, environment, and materials. The parameters often have co-dependencies across different process steps and tool sets. Physics based models and linear regression have been used traditionally, which are often not sufficient to learn the underlying variabilities.

This course will teach the material needed to connect cleanroom and printed electronics science and technology to that of advanced data processing capabilities enabled by Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Cleanroom tools inherently can have millions of internal variables and can learn from the datasets, providing a powerful and complementary approach to traditional feedback control and process stabilization approaches.

Learning models are developed on images (CD-SEMS, optical images), time history data (Optical Emission Spectroscopy), and textual process information. A subset of the class will include: (1) Approaches to preprocess image data and create learning-based models, (2) model verification, (3) application to nanomechanical switch fabrication, and (4) cloud based implementation, data security, and data standardization.

 Course Outline:

1.      Introduction – The need for AI in microfabrication and printed electronics

a.      Microfabrication: Tool variability, process variations

b.      Printed Electronics: Inkjet variations, spatial variations

2.      Fabrication and data collection

a.      Metrology

b.      Fabrication equipment data

c.       Cleanroom data

3.      Data and image processing

a.      Types of data

b.      Time-dependent data

d.      Size of data

e.      Computational capabilities

4.      AI and machine learning algorithms

a.      Regression

b.      Binary trees

c.       Random forests

d.      Deep Neural Nets (e.g. Image to Image translation using Pix2Pix)

5.      Results and outlook

a.      Improvement in linewidths

b.      Cloud based implementations
