Experts call different periods for the passage to the use of silicic plates 450 mm diameter with the production of semiconductor microcircuits: according to some estimations, the suitable moment would begin in 2017, but TSMC company call to begin the introduction of 450 mm plates up to 2014 even under the crisis conditions . The re-equipping of factories under the new standard size of silicic plates requires enormous expenditures, but in the long-term it will reduce the prime cost of production and increase the production volumes .
Associate reports that the Taiwan company gudeng precision industrial specializing in lithographic production already began to obtain orders for the development of recommendations and standards, used with silicic plates standard size 450 mm. The services of this company are used by TSMC, UMC, SMIC and Powerchip semiconductor corporation. Related Products :
