Atomic Layer Deposition (ALD) players are poised to seize a new growth opportunity after the chip shortage pushed manufacturers to announce fab capacity expansions worldwide. Driven by the wafer production volume increase, ALD solutions are now expected to grow and enter the MtM devices market.

Since the release of ISO 27001, a raft of new international information security standards have emerged. Within the trend of cyber/digital resilience, how exactly do senior executives understand the latest cybersecurity standards from a management perspective?

Jens Fabrowsky, executive VP of Automotive Electronics at Robert Bosch GmbH, spoke about changes in the European electronics industry necessary for the region to become more resilient, sharing his views during the panel discussion at SEMI ISS Europe on May 30 2022 in Brussels, Belgium.

The Pact for Skills aims to support upskilling and reskilling and generate European, national and regional funding to attract new talent. Launched by commissioners Breton and Schmit, the Pact makes it a priority to create a well-skilled workforce in microelectronics R&D, design, and manufacturing.

Guido D’hert, High Tech and Semiconductor Industry Europe Lead at Accenture, spoke about challenges semiconductor companies face in meeting sustainability goals and how to apply analytics, new green technologies and circular design, sharing during his presentation at ISS Europe in Brussels, Belgium.

Luc Van den hove, president and CEO at imec, spoke on semiconductor sustainability, healthcare trends and deep tech, and their implications for the semiconductor industry, sharing his views ahead of his keynote presentation at SEMI ISS Europe on May 30, 2022, in Brussels, Belgium.

The increasing complexity of IC manufacturing poses a number of challenges including the mask data preparation required to enable technology improvements such as multi-beam (MB) mask writers and extreme ultraviolet (EUV) lithography. Thiago Figueiro, VP of Sales & Marketing of Aselta weighs in.

EMD Electronics welcomes dozens of interns into its various business functions nationwide every year. Students from under-graduate and postgraduate programs gain valuable experience in a global science and technology company connecting with colleagues across the world from day one.

Many SEMI members have long looked to the military as a rich source of talent, and many veterans and active reservists have been employed in the microelectronics sector for years. The April 2022 issue of GI Jobs featured an interview with West Point graduate and TEL President Larry Smith.

A steel mill and a 200mm semiconductor fab face a similar challenge: How to improve output, whether in Tons Per Year (TPY) or Wafer Starts Per Month (WSPM), while saddled with a capital equipment footprint that cannot be readily replaced or easily expanded.
