Patterning really leverages all of these technologies where you just need to have something on a wafer or a chip at a high resolution.

Professor Paul Berger

We want to help make the wafer-size transition as efficient and cost-effective as possible, by involving a wide range of industry players-especially the equipment supplier community.

Scott Kramer

We have seen strong customer acceptance of our electroplated wafer bumping technology, including our lead-free bump, as well as wafer probe capability, and we expect to continue to strategically expand these resources.

James Kim

You don't just want a mask image that will give you an acceptable pattern at exact focus and dose. You want the pattern on the wafer to be acceptable over a reasonable range of focus and dose errors and variations in resist.

Andrew Moore

Within this thin wafer of bread is caught up symbolically the labor of plow and of sowing, of harvest and threshing, of milling, of packing, of transportation, of financing, of selling and packaging. Man's industrial life is all there.

Wilford O. Cross

A wafer fab (fabrication plant) is something very complex and a difficult business to run and operate.

Craig Addison

Our biggest challenges are trying to find a chemistry that's compatible with the low-k dielectrics. They're so much more sensitive than traditional low-k or TEOS-type substrates that we've been working with. It's become a real challenge to find something that's compatible with that, while also still being able to clean the resists off the wafer.

Ben Cruz

Our program will focus on wafer-on-wafer and die-on-wafer structures. Solutions will be sought for both high-performance and low-cost products.

Sitaram Arkalgud

We are taking this step in close collaboration with Singapore's Economic Development Board, Chartered Semiconductor Manufacturing and other customers who operate in Singapore. As wafer process technology continues to advance below 90 nanometers, IC packaging will increasingly require advanced flip-chip and wafer-level solutions.

Oleg Khaykin

It basically allows us to double the number of flash chips we get on every wafer. It's a huge advantage in terms of being able to supply the industry with more chips.

Curt Nichols

These actions, along with our previously announced on-schedule wafer sort consolidation efforts into our Manila, Philippines facility, are examples of our ongoing commitment to improving efficiencies. Customer satisfaction and quality are of paramount importance as we execute on this consolidation.

Christine King

Looking ahead at productivity assumptions, we realize that we must be very aggressive in pushing for improvements in manufacturing productivity. Part of the productivity formula includes serious preparation for larger wafer sizes.

Scott Kramer

The semiconductor industry will, we believe, experience period capacity shortages for these leading-edge production wafers. As some of the end markets for our products begin a steep growth phase, we will need every wafer we can get.
