Preparation method and processing equipment of extreme ultraviolet light source collecting mirror​

Changchun Institute of Optics Fine Mechanics and Physics of CAS

CN117891139A​

Abstract​

The invention relates to a preparation method and processing equipment of an extreme ultraviolet light source collecting mirror, wherein the method comprises the following steps: manufacturing a mirror blank; preliminary processing of the surface of the substrate; preparing a silicon modified layer; polishing the surface of the silicon modified layer; detecting the surface type precision and roughness of the collecting mirror; photoetching a grating structure on the surface of the collecting mirror; detecting the machining precision of the grating structure; coating a film on the surface of the grating structure; parameters of the collection mirror are detected. According to the invention, the collecting mirror substrate is made of the silicon carbide material, so that the thermal deformation of the collecting mirror substrate in the working process is reduced, silicon is used for modifying the surface of the substrate, and the consistency of the linear expansion coefficients of the collecting mirror substrate and the modified layer is improved. The photoetching is adopted to process the surface grating structure of the collecting mirror, so that the requirement on ultra-precise processing equipment is reduced, and the problem of insufficient precision of the surface grating structure of the collecting mirror which is processed by an ultra-precise lathe and modified by silicon is solved. The special curved surface exposure equipment is designed and used, so that the curved surface exposure problem is solved, and the processing precision of the grating structure is further improved.​

Yongsi Electronics: Raised 1.2 billion yuan to invest in multi-dimensional heterogeneous advanced packaging projects​


On May 27, Yongsi Electronics issued an announcement stating that the company plans to issue convertible corporate bonds to unspecified objects with a total amount of funds raised not exceeding 1.2 billion yuan. The net amount of funds raised after deducting issuance expenses will be used for multi-dimensional heterogeneous advanced packaging technology research and development and industrialization projects, to supplement working capital and repay bank loans.

The total investment of Yongsi Electronics for this project is 146,400 yuan, and the planned investment amount of raised funds is 900 million yuan. The implementation site is located in the company's Phase II factory in Ningbo, Zhejiang. At that time, it will purchase temporary health equipment, mechanical grinding equipment, chemical grinding machines, dry silicon engraving machines, chemical vapor deposition machines, wafer-level molding machines, flip-chip placement machines, flux cleaning machines, automatic grinding machines and other advanced R&D testing and packaging and testing production equipment, and at the same time introduce high-precision technology and production talents in the industry to build a R&D platform and advanced packaging production line that are compatible with the company's development strategy.

Yongsi Electronics will carry out research and development and industrialization in the fields of "wafer-level reconstruction packaging technology (RWLP)", "multi-layer wiring connection technology (HCOS-OR)", "high copper pillar connection technology (HCOS-OT)", "silicon via connection board technology (HCOS-SI)" and "silicon via connection board technology (HCOS-AI)", and after full production, it will form an annual production capacity of 90,000 pieces of multi-dimensional heterogeneous advanced packaging products such as fan-out packaging (Fan-out) series and 2.5D/3D series. The implementation of this project will further deepen the company's business layout in the field of advanced packaging and continuously enhance the company's core competitiveness.

Huasuo Technology:

SiC equipment supplied to BYD.


Huasuo Technology announced that they had successfully entered the equipment supply chain for the silicon carbide substrate processing project of Shenzhen BYD Research Institute, and the two parties signed a substrate processing equipment contract worth tens of millions of yuan .

1717000340025.png
"Insiders Talk About Three and a Half Generations" learned that as early as 2020, the Third Generation Semiconductor Research Center of BYD Central Research Institute had successfully mastered the full-link process and equipment manufacturing technology of silicon carbide wafer substrates, and the performance of 4-inch silicon carbide wafers has reached the world's advanced level. We speculate that this equipment purchase is to prepare for further mastering the development and mass production of large-size substrates .


Sanan Semiconductor:

SiC products enter Europe

According to foreign media reports, Sanan Semiconductor recently signed a distribution agreement
with distributor Finepower GmbH to sell Sanan's SiC products in Europe .

Finepower said that with Sanan, their already strong power device product portfolio has been perfectly supplemented. Silicon carbide is the semiconductor material for future high-voltage applications. Sanan offers the world's largest production capacity with excellent quality levels. They are very proud to cooperate with Sanan in this growing market.

W/ Sanan entering Europe, does that mean China SiC MOSFET demand outside of BYD is not enough to fill the Changsha 12k wpm fab? Wonder what this will mean for MOSFET pricing when they ramp to 40k wpm and won't this be in direct competition with their JV w/ STM?

Companies try to expand their markets all the times.
Wonder what this will mean for MOSFET pricing when they ramp to 40k wpm and won't this be in direct competition with their JV w/ STM?
I don't know if this movement is with ST Microelectronics.
