Producing high-purity wafers via the CMP process is a critical application and the halting of harmful slurry-DIW ...

A fundamental component of modern electronic goods is the semiconductor. More powerful, faster and smaller processors are in constant demand for many services and goods because of the advent of the ...

For decades, semiconductor manufacturers have used chemical-mechanical polishing (CMP) as the primary technique for the smoothing and leveling (planarization) of dielectrics and metal layers. CMP ...

The semiconductor industry is constantly marching toward thinner films and complex geometries with smaller dimensions, as well as newer materials. The number of chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) ...

Electronic and computer processors with a higher speed need smaller features for integrated circuits (IC), which also need smoother and smaller substrate surfaces. Chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) ...

To allow real-time control of dielectric chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) processes to the 45 nm device node and beyond, Santa Clara, Calif.-based semiconductor manufacturing equipment leader ...

Geneva, June 15, 2011 - STMicroelectronics (NYSE: STM) and CMP (Circuits Multi Projets®) today announced that the CMOS 28nm process from STMicroelectronics is now available for prototyping to ...

In semiconductor manufacturing, the chemical mechanical polishing (or CMP) step is used to planarize, or create a level topography, between each layer of the interconnect structure as the device is ...

Suppliers of chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) slurries may be fierce competitors of Cabot Microelectronics, the company considered to be the sector's number one player, but they agree with the ...
