In earlier writings we have discussed cost of ownership issues (COO) related to photoresist processing tools. In this entry, we will discuss the important functional differences between tools generally intended for the FEOL, and those… Continue reading Why Back End of Line (BEOL) Photoresist “Track” Tools Are & Must Be Different from Front End of Line (FEOL) Photoresist Processors
In our last article, we discussed the need to lower the COO of the tools of production for those who are both designing and building their chips. The issue that we attempt to address here is… Continue reading Lowering the Cost of Ownership (COO) of Spin Process Tools
In our first post, we made the following point about companies that are not the huge Foundries; “such companies will use their own creativity and drive to gain a market advantage owing to their expertise… Continue reading On Data…Innovation…and Nature
