Yole & SEMI to Summarize HB-LED Progress in Webinars
The webinar series, to be held on 3 dates during February and March 2011 is called “HB-LED Manufacturing Growth & Transition-Challenges, Solutions & Opportunities”
SEMI & Yole Développement have teamed up to present a 3-part webinar series on HB-LED manufacturing. It will take place on February 9, March 2, and March 23 at 10:00am Pacific (1:00pm Eastern Time).
The collaboration anticipates this series to be the most comprehensive overview of LED manufacturing ever presented. The series, “HB-LED Manufacturing Growth & Transition: Challenges, Solutions and Opportunities”, will cover materials, front end manufacturing and assembly/packaging/test operations in three sessions.
This series is an opportunity to learn about the latest technology and manufacturing trends, key challenges in LED cost reduction and productivity challenges, and technology demands. The schedule is as follows:
February 9: Substrates & Raw Materials: Status quo?; Sapphire, SiC; Pending crunch?; Indium/Gallium; Trusted friend!; Silicon progress
March 2: Front End Manufacturing: Capacity explosion! Epitaxy; Efficiency gains?; Fixing droop effect; Process evolution?; Patterning, Laser lift-off etc.
March 23: Testing, Binning and Packaging: Submount choices?; Si vs. Ceramic; Good results?; Testing & Binning; Collective packaging!; C2W, WLP, WL Optics
The webinars will be presented by Philippe Roussel of Yole Développement. He leads the Compound Semiconductors market analysis department and also led the development of the 2008 Yole LED Manufacturing Report.
Yole Développement analyzes progress in the microtechnologies and compound semiconductor markets. The firm engages in in-depth analysis of the HB LED market and will issue reports on all key aspects of LED manufacturing later this year.
