More Devices Will See In 3D
By Manuel Tagliavini - 21 Mar, 2019 - Comments: 0

The 3D optical sensing market is once again surging – and it’s all thanks to Apple. What will we see in the next wave of end products enhanced by this technology, how will other market segments approach – and eventually use – 3D optical sensing, and which suppliers stand to gain the most from this very vital technology? Although 3D sensing, facial recognition and optical authenticati... » read more

New Model To Advance Industry Roadmaps
By David Anderson - 21 Feb, 2019 - Comments: 0

Economically, geopolitically and technologically – with visibility for the future unclear – there couldn’t be a better time for the microelectronics industry to take stock of its options. The U.S. government obsesses with whether to build a bigger wall. The trade war continues to have significant impact across the globe, straining U.S./China relationships to the point of saber rattling... » read more

More Fabs, More Equipment Spending
By Christian Dieseldorff - 20 Sep, 2018 - Comments: 0

Global fab equipment spending will increase 14 percent this year to US$62.8 billion and is expected to rise 7.5 percent, to US$67.5 billion, in 2019, marking the fourth consecutive year of spending growth and the highest investment year for fab equipment in the history of the industry, according to the latest World Fab Forecast Report published by SEMI. Investments in new fab construction are a... » read more

Growth Ahead For Vacuum Subsystems
By Julian West - 16 Aug, 2018 - Comments: 0

Vacuum pumps, pressure gauges and vacuum valves combined make up the biggest expense on the bill of materials for semiconductor OEMs. In 2017, almost $2.5 billion worth of vacuum subsystems were consumed by the semiconductor industry with over half supplied by vendors based in Europe. Vacuum subsystems sales account for one third of expenditure on all critical subsystems used in semiconducto... » read more

Combining Human Intelligence And Smart Machines
By SEMI - 21 Jun, 2018 - Comments: 1

By Nancy Greco, Dave Mayewski, James Moyne, Paul Werbaneth The spacecraft Discovery and its HAL 9000 computer system had a digital twin. Stanley Kubrick’s seminal film “2001: A Space Odyssey” had its theatrical release 50 years ago this April. “2001” isn’t just a great science fiction film. Rather, it’s a great work of cinema overall, across any category. (The American Film... » read more
