This course, originally recorded on August 18, 2020, describes how machine learning and AI-based approaches to research, development, and production brings advantages to cleanroom processes. AI-based identification of time-varying equipment performance, and the effects of the previous recipe used on the outcome of the current desired methods, are just some of the ways AI can be used to reduce the process variability.
Cornell University has applied AI approaches to optimize lithography and etching processes involved in the development of an RF wake-up NEMS (Nano ElectroMechnical system) switch that needs a well-controlled gap between a moving shuttle and a contact. This presentation highlights that, as well as a decision tree based AI model for predicting lithography outcomes.
The AI work used as the basis for the course has been applied to plasma etching and the combined prediction of lithography and thin-film etching, using CD-SEM imagery for feature extraction and modeling process variables. Additional approaches to train process-modeling CAD tools to result in better process development experience have been developed.
The course provides a useful basis upon which to formulate AI strategies for all thin film manufacturing sites.

The COVID Pandemic has caused a worldwide shortage of many consumable supplies that SEMI members require. Increased safety and PPE usage by new industries have strained the supply chain, forcing buyers to identify and establish relations with new providers, as many providers are in allocation mode working only with established customers. Thomas Scientific is hosting this session to provide insights into how to address this current predicament.

As new materials and process emerge to enable the integration of high performance micro-electronics into paper-thin, flexible hybrid electronics (FHE), there is an increasing demand for new power sources that also support the goals of ultra-thin and flexible.
Among the key challenges is the ability to achieve high energy densities as the battery thickness decreases to a point where the packaging becomes an increasing fraction of the total volume. The challenge is further complicated by the demanding duty cycles for many FHE systems that require both high power (periodic, large current bursts) and high energy (operation across many years in some cases).
At the same time, the new power sources must meet the typical high standards for safety, durability, compatibility with a wide range of storage and operation temperatures, and the needs to support effective integration into the FHE platforms.
The session reviews the challenges and progress for new power supplies that are emerging to meet the needs of the FHE community.
