Solid State Technology and SEMI have selected the Closed-Loop Control System as a 2013 Best of West Award finalist. The closed-loop system provides complete control of high-purity chemical processes and delivery systems with customizable feedback capability to maintain optimum system performance. It is designed to support process tools that require a set flow or pressure at the point of use.
Details
The Closed-Loop Controller (CPC-1) automatically adjusts to maintain a set pressure or flow rate in high purity, closed-loop chemical pumping systems to compensate for variables in wafer processes, such as opening/closing chamber valves or clogging filters. The controlled closed-loop system improves process repeatability, increases chip yields, and simplifies automation to save customers time and resources.…

White Knight’s Cycle Rate Translator (CPT-1) enables pump swap-outs in existing tools. The CPT-1 operates White Knight pumps at their optimal cycle rate and communicates a scaled operational cycle rate to match that expected by the tool. It also manages cycle rate errors and eliminates steady-state cycle rate alarms.
DBA and DBH Series in-line and top-mount pulse dampeners augment the capabilities of White Knight high purity pumps. They reduce pulsation in fluid systems to improve flow control, increase batch yields, protect filters, fittings and pipes, and minimize downtime for system repairs. DBA and DBH Series dampeners operate in temperatures up to 100°C (212°F) and 145°C (293°F), respectively.

White Knight’s high-purity PPM100 pneumatic metering pumps feature PTFE fluid paths. They are capable of dispensing up to 100 ml of corrosive media with +/-0.1% repeatability at high-pressure (60-85 psi). The pumps offer adjustable flow rates for use in single-wafer processing tools or premix vessels to ensure exact chemistry mixtures, and they allow for in-situ mixing directly at the head.

PSS Sapphire Wafer – Wet vs. Dry Etching The U.S. Department of Energy is expected to release a report stating that in order to compete effectively with the fluorescent lighting market, solid-state lighting manufacturers need to cut the cost per lumen (currently at $18/klm) by 8x to $2.20/klm by 2015. Gaining efficiencies during the manufacturing…
