INDUSTRIAL APPLICATION

Electronics & Semiconductors

We explore three distinct routes: functional glass for devices, microdrilling of glass substrates, and metal-ceramic interfaces for process-equipment components. Each route requires its own validation.

Why it fits here

Glass is a good substrate for what it does not do: it does not conduct, deform or contaminate. What it lacked was a way to go through it precisely and to integrate function inside it.

What changes for you

• Microdrilling of glass substrates with controlled via quality.
• Functional structures inside the glass, protected by it.
• Metal-ceramic surfaces for process-equipment components.

Potential applications

Functional structures in glass; TGVs; surfaces for process chambers.

What needs to be validated

Electrical and optical function; via quality and downstream metallization; purity and plasma resistance, depending on the route.

Each application needs specific validation. Qualification or commercial availability of the final product is not implied.
