Hydrogen is used in many processes across the semiconductor industry, like annealing, epitaxial growth, lithography, and as a carrier gas for hydride dopants. Hydrogen gas usage is only increasing, and along with that comes constraints on supply chains and markets. Hydrogen generation is also becoming more prevalent in order to mitigate traditional supply chain issue, […]
While the semiconductor shortage is still ongoing, the semiconductor sector itself is, at the same time, seeing a new wave of expansion, with demands for chip innovation growing larger each day. While chip innovation has taken off, Moore’s Law 2D scaling is stalling. Now, with each successive iteration, chip shrinking takes longer and is more […]
The tech world is abuzz about 5G—and for good reason. This fifth generation of wireless technology for digital cellular is driving potential for high-tech companies that are developing increasingly connected devices and smart products. 5G is also requiring semiconductor fabs—which produce the chips these devices need to operate—to keep up. The rollout of 5G has […]
Today’s digital transformations have driven growth in the semiconductor industry, with the 300mm silicon wafer market expected to increase by 5% in 2021. Along with this growth has come a greater pressure on fabs to increase output. Bulk gas delivery systems that support higher flow rates can solve this need—but they come with engineering hurdles […]
The main goal of college is to enrich students’ lives so that they can find their career path and ensure that soon after their graduation caps are thrown in the air, they will excel in their field. Yet, learning in a classroom setting does not often adequately prepare students for the types of challenges encountered within their chosen industry.
