Rohm and Haas opens Asia technical center to support leading-edge CMP applications facility co-located with Asia-Pacific manufacturing facility in Hsinchu; further increases regional capabilities for CMP
Hsincu, Taiwan (BUSINESS WIRE) - Rohm and Haas Electronic Materials (NYSE:ROH), CMP Technologies, a leader and innovator in chemical mechanical planarization (CMP) technology for the global semiconductor industry, today announced the opening of its new Asia Technical Center (ATC) in Hsinchu, Taiwan.
The ATC allows CMP Technologies to collaborate more closely with Asian-based customers to help optimize advanced CMP processes and consumable sets, as well as provide engineering and technical support throughout the Asia-Pacific region.
The ATC features an applications laboratory offering 300 mm CMP polishing capability and state-of-the-art 300 mm metrology in class 10 and class 1000 cleanroom facilities with room for future expansion.
Developed to support the world's leading semiconductor manufacturers, the ATC is currently engaging with key customers for advanced technology and next generation CMP applications such as advanced node 32nm and 22nm ultra low K Cu, shallow trench isolation (STI), Tungsten (W) polish and interlayer dielectric (ILD).
The ATC also houses CMP Technologies' Applications Engineering and Technical Service Groups for the Asia-Pacific region, and is in the process of adding another analytical lab for slurry and pad product characterization.
"Taiwan is the largest producer of semiconductor devices in the world, due to its strong mix of logic and memory operations," said Mario Stanghellini, executive vice president and general manager, Rohm and Haas Electronic Materials, CMP Technologies, Asia.
"The new ATC gives us a critical ability, unmatched in the region, to work with these manufacturers to develop and optimize CMP consumable sets and processes that directly improve their bottom line."
"Our ATC is designed and staffed to support customers on commercial products while being flexible to rapidly engage on new technologies," said Wei-Chung Yu, director, Asia Technology.
"We are able to provide our customers with real-time evaluation and feedback, which can reduce their cycle time and enable faster implementation of advanced technologies. The ATC, along with our local engineering and technical support teams, also allows us to be more responsive to customer needs by offering support in the same time zone, same language and same culture."
An integral part of the CMP Technologies global technology network, the ATC works closely with the laboratories in the U.S. to support the applications and development needs of its customers. The ATC is located in the CMP Technologies' Asia-Pacific Manufacturing and Technical Center in Hsinchu. The shared facility ensures that customers have direct access to all products and services in a single location.
The Hsinchu site is ISO 9001 and ISO 14000 certified, and adheres to Six-Sigma principles for all operations, including manufacturing, supply chain management, advanced research and development, CMP applications engineering, technical service and sales support.
