SEMICONDUCTOR MATERIALS MARKET RESEARCH

 

Summary

Semiconductor materials play a vital role in the manufacturing of integrated devices (I.C.s). Materials used to pattern the wafer are classified as "Fab Materials", while those used to protect and/or connect the die are referred to as "Packing Materials". The materials segments that SEMI follows include:

Fab Materials

  • Silicon
  • SOI
  • Photomasks
  • Photoresist
  • Photoresist Ancillaries
  • Gases
  • Chemicals
  • Targets
  • CMP

Packaging Materials

  • Leadframes
  • Substrates
  • Bonding Wire
  • Die Attach
  • Mold Compounds
  • Encapsulants
  • Ceramic Packages
  • Other Packaging Materials
