10 French High-Tech Organizations to Present Latest Technologies, Services at SEMICON Taiwan

GRENOBLE, France--(BUSINESS WIRE)--SEMI Europe Grenoble Office announced today that 10 semiconductor equipment and solution providers will present their latest technologies at SEMICON Taiwan, Sept. 8-10, in the French Pavilion.

The pavilion is organised by UBI France in close collaboration with SEMI Europe Grenoble Office, as well as the worldwide competitive cluster MINALOGIC, which is devoted to IC design, fabrication and associated embedded software. Most of the exhibiting companies and organizations have co-development programs on 3D applications with CEA-Leti. The National Research Institute is co-exhibiting at SEMICON Taiwan to help them promote their products and services.

CEA-Leti
CEA is a French research and technology public organization, with activities in four main areas: energy, information technologies, healthcare technologies and defense and security. Within CEA, the Laboratory for Electronics & Information Technology (CEA-Leti) works with companies in order to increase their competitiveness through technological innovation and transfers. CEA-Leti is focused on micro- and nanotechnologies and their applications, from wireless devices and systems, to biology and healthcare or photonics. Nanoelectronics and microsystems (MEMS) are at the core of its activities. As a major player in MINATEC campus, CEA-Leti operates 8,000-m² state-of-the-art clean rooms, on 24/7 mode, on 200mm and 300mm wafer standards. With 1,200 employees, CEA-Leti trains more than 150 Ph.D. students and hosts 200 assignees from partner companies. Strongly committed to the creation of value for the industry, CEA-Leti puts a strong emphasis on intellectual property and owns more than 1,500 patent families.

SET
Smart Equipment Technology is a world-leading supplier of high-accuracy die-to-die, die-to-wafer bonding and nanoimprint lithography (NIL) solutions. Its FC300 High Force Device Bonder is a new generation of high-accuracy and high-force system for populating wafers up to 300 mm. The FC300 features automated handling of chips and substrates up to 100mm from waffle packs, plus a robotic option that enables chip picking from diced wafers and automated handling of larger substrates. SET has developed a substrate chuck and a bond head with localized confinement that operates safely with reducing gases such as forming gas or formic acid vapor. This configuration has been successfully implemented on SET bonder models FC150 and FC300, especially in the case of chip-to wafer bonding applications.
