For 32nm and 22nm node ICs, Applied Materials’ FCVD and Novellus Systems’ CFD technologies provide gapfill, sidewall spacers, and conformal oxides for logic and NAND, plus SSDP litho.

The control of complex interdependencies is critical for the successful manufacturing of nanometer-scale ICs. Every aspect of every unit process step in the line must be ever more tightly controlled to ensure that 45nm and 32nm node chips can be made with good yield. To serve the market, Novellus continues to announce new integrated surface-treatment […]
