Lubricants For Semiconductor Manufacturing Equipment
Aerospace manufacturers long ago solved the problem of lubricant outgassing, contamination, and starvation. Their work is now reaping benefits in the semiconductor industry. Ultrafiltration removes microscopic contaminants from oils and greases and homogenizes agglomerated thickener in grease

Designing Safe, Low-cost Vacuum and Exhaust Gas Management Systems for Semiconductor Processes (.pdf)
Vacuum and exhaust gas management are critical components of semiconductor manufacturing. While these systems are usually hidden away out of sight-and out of mind-in the process tool or the sub fab, they are vital to efficient and safe manufacturing. Vacuum systems remove potentially hazardous

covers, chemical-resistant linings for process-equipment components, and in semiconductor processing equipment. Materials do not adhere readily to the slippery surface of FEP, PFA, and PTFE parts. Surfaces can be chemically etched, however, to permit bonding with adhesives. Thus, low-friction surfaces

The earliest recorded use of CIM technology was in the 1930s when, for only a short time, an early version of the technique was used to make spark plugs. However, most experts agree that modern CIM processing began in the late 1960s when it was found to be valuable for manufacturing semiconductor

Wafer & Substrate Bumping with Solder Paste
diameter"? There are some "rules of thumb" on this in the electronics assembly industry, and I'll go into them later. In my next posting, I'll show why they may not be relevant or appropriate for the standard waferbumping process. Wafer and Substrate Bumping with Solder Paste (I) - Semiconductor
