Advanced Materials: The Dark Horse in the Semiconductor Chipmaking Race?
Sponsored by the Electronics business of Merck KGaA, Darmstadt, Germany.
Time
4:00 pm - 5:00 pm CEST
Location
Germany
This webinar is the FIRST webinar in a series of webinars to explore pressing topics on materials and semiconductor development.
Join us to learn how to best introduce new materials in chip fabrication workflows as the demand for better performance, functionality, and reliability grows for applications such as 5G, artificial intelligence, virtual and/or augmented reality, and edge computing.
Our experts will discuss opportunities, challenges, and best practices in transitioning to novel process architectures and the new materials considerations for successful deployments - in a risk-free way - including:
- Exploring the exciting developments in back-end-of-the-line interconnect technology.
- Transitioning from the established copper/low-k dual-damascene approach to novel metallization (such as Ru, Mo, Co, etc.), and new process integration schemes.
- Offering integrated additive (i.e., deposition) and subtractive (etch and CMP) process modules that meet aggressive KPI targets for accelerating semiconductor technology development.
Register today to access exclusive content during an interactive session.
You will be able to apply these techniques and best practices to solve your unique challenges. Live Q&A will follow.
