  are then melted in the quartz crucibles of the rows of crystal pullers in the factory. Then crystal growth and the pulling of the ingots takes place, followed by the sawing of the silicon rods, edge rounding of the newly sliced wafers, grinding and lapping, polishing, and cleaning. The process concludes...

  years' experience working in the semiconductor and semiconductor equipment industries. He can be reached at Driven by rapidly declining prices and fast-paced major advances in products and quality, the large-area flat-panel display (FPD) markets have seen phenomenal growth. For the first time, FPDs...

  and vendors to keep the lid on costs that could spiral to as much as $30 billion industrywide. The supplier representatives also cited automation, tool integration, process optimization, and, in the case of Wacker, large-volume crystal growth as major challenges. With industry insiders saying at least...
• Nanostructured Steels Are On The Horizon
  . This low-tech approach will lower the cost of wire-arc spraying while simplifying the process of making industrial grade nanoscale materials. Frontal view of NanoSteel's R&D inert gas atomization system during atomization. It has an annular flow close-coupled nozzle to produce either fine HVOF...

• Scale deposit problems
  chemical mechanisms: 1. Control of the rate of precipitation and of crystal growth. 2. Control of particle agglomeration and nature of scale deposit by affecting particle-to-particle attractive forces. 3. Crystal modification. Scale deposits that have formed beyond control by any or a combination...

• Liquid Mixing: Solid Challenges
  to anyone who uses kitchen-counter blenders, but industrial practitioners will tell you that liquid mixing/blending is not as straightforward as it appears. “Mixing is not what you learned in college,” says Scott. “You can take a class in hydrodynamics, but when it comes to liquid mixing, success is all...
