The Fundamentals of Semiconductor Production

Discussion around semiconductors has been heating up recently with supply shortages and the CHIPS and Science Act of 2022 aiming to ramp up semiconductor production in the US.

For manufacturers looking to establish their own fabrication plants (fabs), finding components suitable for use in cleanrooms that also optimize overall equipment effectiveness (OEE) is essential.

Read on to learn about the history of semiconductors and the various steps in semiconductor manufacturing, as well as components offered by igus® that meet ISO class 1 through 6 cleanroom standards ideal for semiconductor production.
