Aviza Technology Announces Etch System Order from Robert Bosch GmbH.World's Number One MEMS (MicroElectroMechanical Systems) Tiny mechanical devices that are built onto semiconductor chips and are measured in micrometers. In the research labs since the 1980s, MEMS devices began to materialize as commercial products in the mid-1990s. Sensor Manufacturer Selects Aviza for Deep Silicon Etching SCOTTS VALLEY, Calif. -- Aviza Technology, Inc. (NASDAQ NASDAQ in full National Association of Securities Dealers Automated Quotations U.S. market for over-the-counter securities. Established in 1971 by the National Association of Securities Dealers (NASD), NASDAQ is an automated quotation system that reports on :AVZA), a supplier of advanced semiconductor capital equipment and process technologies for the global semiconductor industry and related markets, today announced a new system order from Robert Bosch GmbH Robert Bosch GmbH [1] is a German corporation which was started in 1886 by Robert Bosch in Stuttgart, Germany. [2] Bosch businesses include:
A contract for the purchase or sale of an MBS to be delivered at an agreed-upon future date but does not include a specified pool number and number of pools or precise amount to be delivered. in three months. Bosch produces over a hundred and thirty million sensors each year and is also the inventor of the deep silicon etch To create a design in a material by digging out the material. The circuit designs on printed circuit boards and chips are etched by acid. See chip and printed circuit board. technology commonly known as "the Bosch process." "The Bosch name is synonymous in the industry with deep silicon etch technology. We couldn't be more proud to be chosen as a key etch equipment supplier for their future technology development and production needs," said Kevin Crofton, Vice President and General Manager, PVD/CVD/Etch Business Unit of Aviza Technology, Inc. "These orders represent further validation of our Omega fxP etch system in the MEMS market. These customers expect the highest degree of technology embedded on manufacturing worthy platforms, and the series of recent wins Aviza has recently announced have reflected that success." About Omega fxP Omega fxP is a cluster system designed for high volume production that offers up to six process modules, combined with wafer alignment, cool-down and two vacuum cassette stations. The system provides high throughput for the high volume user or the option to "mix and match" different plasma sources so that advanced sequential etching processes can be addressed. Key applications for Omega include highly controlled Si trench etch plus metal and oxide etch for power devices, deep silicon etch and bulk silicon removal for MEMS and Wafer Level Packaging.
