A Texas-based Epitaxial Wafer Supplier, GlobiTech, Has Been Qualified To
A Texas-based epitaxial wafer supplier, GlobiTech, has been qualified to
produce isotopically pure silicon-28 epitaxial wafers using silicon-28
trichlorosilane. Isotopic material developer Isonics has agreed to work with
GlobiTech to supply silicon-28 wafers. Isotopically purified silicon-28 has
60% higher thermal conductivity than natural silicon and can reduce the self
heating of ICs.
Dr Stephen Burden, Isonics' vice president of Semiconductor Materials,
comments: "GlobiTech has a world class epi facility that can meet the
requirements for 0.13micron and below technology, essential to make next
generation micrprocessors. Having GlobiTech as a qualified supplier allows
Isonics additional flexibility to supply all sizes of silicon-28 wafers to
the semiconductor industry."
Semitool has delivered of its first electroplating system aimed at the IC
packaging market. The Advanced Packaging Platform or APx was installed at US
company Unitive, a provider of wafer level packaging solutions.
