This cutting-edge panel-level wet processing demo tool handles large 510 × 515 mm substrates, delivering world class, high density Through Glass Vias (TGV) formation and ultra-small taper angles essential for advanced packaging in high performance computing.

Gütenbach, Germany – July 15, 2025 – RENA Technologies, a leading manufacturer of wet processing equipment for semiconductor and advanced packaging production, today announced the ramp-up of its dedicated glass core substrates facility in Germany. This new line, designed for substrates up to 510 × 515 mm, immediately opens for customer test lots, underscoring RENA's proven expertise in glass processing and creating new opportunities for process development and customer sample production. “As experts in precision wet processing, we can now offer large panel demo services for high aspect ratio through glass via (TGV) formation on various glass types,” said Dr. Holger H. Kuehnlein, SVP Technology at RENA. “Our alkaline based TGV process delivers extremely small taper angles, low sidewall roughness, and exceptional dimensional control at panel scale, enabling high density via applications. Customers can begin validating these capabilities today.”

Why Glass, and Why Wet Processing?
Glass substrates offer significant advantages for advanced electronics, including ultra-flat surfaces, low dielectric loss, and superior thermal stability. However, realizing these benefits at scale requires defect free surface preparation and the formation of uniform, high density TGVs with minimal taper angles. RENA's wet processing systems are specifically designed to address both challenges:
1. Surface Engineering – Our systems ensure precise cleaning and stress relief across 600 x 600mm panels with submicron total thickness variation (TTV).
2. Chemically Formed TGVs – Following initial laser modifications performed by our specialist partners, RENA’s proprietary chemistries form, enlarge and shape each via to exact specifications. This process consistently delivers very small taper angles and smooth sidewalls, ideal for subsequent metallization.

By collaborating with leading German and international laser partners, RENA offers customers the flexibility to choose their preferred laser vendor while ensuring all downstream wet processing steps are handled by our advanced equipment.

Key Highlights of the New Facility
Panel Size: Focus on 510 x 515mm and up to 600 × 600mm, smaller possible
Tool Set: Alkaline TGV etching, advanced rinse/dry, optical inspection & metrology
Field-Proven Recipes: Process conditions migrated from high volume tools
On-Demand Access: Customers may run demo substrates, qualify custom chemistries, or request full process flows
Sustainability: Low temperature chemistries and closed loop water reclamation reduce energy and ultrapure water (UPW) consumption

Market Impact
High-Performance Computing (HPC) as well as 5G/6G RF modules increasingly require new package designs, including panel-level fan-out and trend towards more complex chiplet architectures. Glass substrates, long considered the “holy grail” for core and interposer material, effectively eliminate the limitations imposed by warpage and dielectric loss in organic substrates. By combining laser modification from our vetted partners with RENA's chemistry driven via shaping, designers can now validate glass packaging concepts on the lab-platform proven at 600x600mm dimensions.
“With this lab-tool, we've created a great opportunity for semiconductor manufacturers to perform demos on panel level glass substrates,” added Peter Schneidewind, CEO of RENA. “From surface preparation to via formation, our wet process flow is ready for customers substrates to support TGV technology breakthroughs. This is world class made in Black Forest.”

Sub-Micron Pitch Scaling of Hybrid Bond Interconnects: Metrology Challenges

Advanced 3D integration technology will increasingly rely on hybrid bonding technology for both wafer-to-wafer and die-to-wafer bonding. This allows for micrometer and sub-micrometer pitch interconnects, resulting in very high 3D interconnect densities, compatible with the back-end-of -line interconnect layers of active logic and memory die. The results are “seamlessly” interconnected die. Off-chip interconnects become equivalent (or better) than on-chip interconnects.
These great system-level benefits however come at some challenges. Small overlay errors or surface imperfections can prevent defects, resulting in yield loss. Critical process, steps, such as CMP, wafer dicing and surface cleaning steps, need to be monitored with higher accuracy to maintain a good process. New parameters, such as wafer shape, distortion, surface profile slopes, and copper pad recess levels need to be measured and continuously monitored. This poses significant challenges to metrology related to hybrid bonding. The presentation will highlight these needs and show some practical solutions.
