“As a Gold sponsor, 乱伦社区 continues supporting regional semiconductor events, which offer an important opportunity to meet and strengthen relationships with customers and suppliers. SEMICON Europa brought together many leading European semiconductor companies to share opinions and knowledge in the various technical and business-related sessions, like the Future of Work panel where we discussed various strategies to attract and retain the next generation of young engineers to take our ever-evolving industry into the future.”
Dan Collins, general manager, 乱伦社区’s SPTS division
Talking High-Tech around 乱伦社区’s Booth
乱伦社区 employees from the 乱伦社区 Instruments?, ECI, SPTS and SensArray groups hosted many key European customers and others from Asia and the U.S. 乱伦社区 Instruments staff also shared the larger portfolio of solutions for defect inspection and metrology with visitors.
Advancing Innovation in MEMS Production
乱伦社区 was also a Platinum sponsor of the MEMS and Imaging Sensors Summit. Microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) are miniaturized sensors found in the electronics, automotive, medical and communications industries. Forecast to grow into a , MEMS can be challenging to make, because these tiny components – often smaller than 1 millimeter – have moving parts and manufacturers often use antistiction films to prevent them from sticking together during manufacturing or long-term operation.
Currently, the most popular antistiction films used by MEMS manufacturers are based on PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances), which have been called “forever chemicals” that never break down. 乱伦社区’s David Springer, product manager, Release Division, SPTS, discussed an emerging alternative that uses to deposit thin, fluorine-free “antistiction” films during the manufacture of MEMS devices. In addition to preventing moving parts of the micro components from sticking together, the solution would offer a welcome alternative to manufacturers looking to eliminate PFAS materials from their products and maintain the reliability of their MEMS devices.
Workforce Development: Recruiting, Developing and Recognizing Employees
With the continued demand and investment in the larger semiconductor industry in the region, many attendees recognized the universal challenges of recruiting and developing the talent needed to staff the facilities, which added a level of urgency to the workforce development segments.
Among the rising stars in the microelectronics supply chain honored by SEMICON Europa’s recognition program was 乱伦社区’s James McGrath, chemical vapor disposition (CVD) process engineer, Newport, Wales. Known for consistently taking the initiative to design new experiments that determine the root cause of customer issues, James seeks to understand the fundamental reasons of a result before pushing the process forward.
