Materials engineering — the ability to manipulate materials at an atomic level and on an industrial scale — continues to be the primary driver of innovation in the semiconductor and electronics industries. The same fundamental capability is of critical importance to multiple other industries ranging from life sciences, pharma, sustainable energy, engineered optics and displays.
How Integrated Materials Solutions Speed Innovation
New solutions that rely on a unified database, machine learning and simulations are able to test, validate and provide customer insights into how materials work for new devices process flows, thereby speeding innovation.
Outlook for 2022: Executive Viewpoints
Each year, Semiconductor Digest turns to industry leaders and analysts to get their viewpoints on what they expect to see in the coming year in terms of critical tech and business trends. For 2022, in addition to ongoing technical advances, expect to see a focus on supply chain challenges, sustainability, the workforce shortage and reshoring.
SEMI Market Forecast: “Remarkable” Growth
At a press conference on Tuesday during SEMICON, Ajit Manocha, SEMI’s President and CEO, provided a preview of the 2022 SEMI market forecast due to be released next week.
How to Increase Fab Efficiency: Look into the Future
What if you could see 60 days into the future? Alex Smith, a VP at Edwards Vacuum, sees a day when that’s possible – at least when it comes to certain areas of fab operations.
Collaboration Needed on Environmental Sustainability
The market drivers behind the semiconductor industry’s explosive growth are well known: AI, 5G, cloud computing, super computing, the IoT, gaming, automotive, medical and smart manufacturing, and of course, the work from home trend driven by the global pandemic.
