Week 30: Recovering From Holiday Travel…
By Anne Cirkel - 02 Jan, 2015 - Comments: 0

Happy New Year! The good news is that one more weekend looms, maybe a useful window for recovery if your batteries are running low after hustling around during the holidays as I did. Packed roads, busy airports, standing in line, being impatient, getting angry… I admit wondering, as my seasonal spirit waned, why we all do this to ourselves? My destination was Germany, so I could spend Christm... » read more

Integrating DSA
By Katherine Derbyshire - 22 Dec, 2014 - Comments: 0

As previous articles in this series have shown, directed self-assembly may be a promising alternative for manufacturers seeking to shrink feature sizes in the face of a stalled exposure tool roadmap. It is simpler than some other frequency-multiplication techniques, can be implemented with existing equipment, and does not appear to introduce insurmountable defect issues of its own. Which does n... » read more

Week 28: Free Every Day At DAC!
By Anne Cirkel - 19 Dec, 2014 - Comments: 0

When I started this blog back in June, one of the first questions I got was from Daniel Payne, one of my favorite SemiWiki bloggers: “This year at DAC on Monday morning when the exhibits opened at 9 a.m. I saw for the very first time that attendees were coming down the escalators, then making a U-turn and deciding to attend the sessions instead of the exhibits. Usually there is a line waiting... » read more

Industry Scorecard For 2014
By Brian Bailey - 18 Dec, 2014 - Comments: 0

At the end of last year, Semiconductor Engineering asked the industry about the developments they expected to see in 2014. If you care to refresh your memory, they were categorized under markets, semiconductors and development tools. Now it is time to look back and see how accurate those predictions were and where they fell short. Markets The obvious trend, at the beginning of the year, wa... » read more
