SCREEN Semiconductor Solutions Co., Ltd. has renewed its joint development agreement with imec to develop advanced and sustainable technologies. Through this agreement, they will promote technological development that contributes to an ecological society through synergy between our expertise in wafer cleaning technology and imec’s advanced semiconductor technology.

The signing ceremony was held at SCREEN headquarters on Dec. 9, 2022.

The need for the advancement of manufacturing processes is increasing in the semiconductor industry, as scaling, stacking, and chiplet technology evolves. To succeed in the expansive, multifaceted world of semiconductors, technological development cannot be attained by a single company alone.

Establishing core technologies and improving quality while reducing costs can be achieved through collaboration with manufacturers of cutting-edge semiconductor products, companies operating in different fields, and industry-government-academia.

In more than 20 years since joining imec’s IIAP (imec Industrial Affiliation Program) in January 2002, SCREEN has expanded the scope of our joint development. In May 2022, SCREEN started its affiliation with imec ‘s new research program: “SSTS*”, to reduce the environmental impact in the semiconductor industry.

Under the new agreement, SCREEN and imec will jointly validate the concept and feasibility of SCREEN’s semiconductor manufacturing equipment (mainly for cleaning equipment and coater developers) to accelerate process development.
