MILPITAS, Calif. — Semiconductor manufacturing thought leaders will convene at the annual SEMI Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference (ASMC 2017) on May 15-18 in Saratoga Springs, New York. The conference will feature 35 hours of technical presentations and over 100 experts addressing all aspects of advanced semiconductor manufacturing. This year’s event features a panel discussion on “The Next Big Thing: Technology Drivers for Next-Gen Manufacturing − Where will the Road take Us?” and a tutorial on Piezoelectric MEMS by Professor Gianluca Piazza, director of Nanofabrication Facility, Carnegie Mellon University.
SEMI’s ASMC continues to provide a venue for industry professionals to network, learn and share knowledge on new and best-method semiconductor manufacturing practices and concepts. The conference is co-chaired by Delphine LeCunff of STMicroelectronics and Russell Dover of Lam Research. ASMC 2017 offers keynotes by Roberto Rapp, VP of Manufacturing at Robert Bosch GmbH; William Miller, VP of Engineering of Qualcomm; and Robert Maire, president of Semiconductor Advisors.
The topical areas that ASMC 2017 will address include
- 3D and Power Technologies
- Advanced Equipment and Materials Processes
- Advanced Metrology
- Advanced Patterning
- Advanced Process Control (APC)
- Contamination Free Manufacturing (CFM)
- Yield Management; Defect Inspection
- Equipment Reliability and Productivity Enhancement
- Factory Optimization
