Daniel Duffy, research scientist in Henkel's Advanced Technology Group, notes pros and cons of epoxy and silicone encapsulants for high-brightness LED (HB-LED) manufacturing, and what HB-LED manufacturers need from die attach materials. He also considers quantum dots.
András Poppe, PhD, marketing manager in Mentor Graphics' MicReD division, discusses LED testing challenges, such as neglected power flux, LED cooling, and the gap between lab and real operating conditions.
As gold becomes more expensive, copper wire bonding becomes more appealing for chip packaging. Reverse bonding, fine-pitch bonding, looping, second bonds, and other technologies are ramping on roadmaps, according to Kulicke & Soffa (K&S).
Veeco Instruments' new TurboDisc MaxBright GaN MOCVD multi-reactor system is poised to take advantage of what the company believes is an accelerated rate of LED TV penetration. The new system targets manufacturing of HB-LEDs and is capable of single- or multi-chamber layer growth.
Speaking at SEMI’s Industry Strategy Symposium, Christian Dieseldorff, SEMI senior analyst, provided an in-depth look at fab construction, capacity, and capex in 2011 and 2012. In this podcast, Dieseldorff walks listeners through fab construction projects by region and device type (LED, non-memory, memory, etc.)
