Webinar
Making and Analysing Semiconductor Devices


Introduction

Semiconductor fabrication is a complicated process which requires precise control and analysis to maximise device performance. Here in Oxford Instrument, we work across multiple business units to offer solutions in semiconductor fabrications, characterization, and failure analysis.

This webinar will show how we can help you manufacture high quality semiconductor devices using etch and deposition techniques. We will then explore innovative imaging and analysis techniques to understand and confirm that the device contains the desired properties. Finally, we will cover techniques used to identify device defects and analyse device failures.

The webinar includes the following key learning points: 

  • Plasma techniques for constructing devices
  • Optimizing semiconductor device manufacture using etch and deposition processes
  • Using AFM & EDS for process control and failure analysis
  • Understanding the construction of semiconductor devices at the nanoscale

Dr Geoff Hassall

Dr Geoff Hassall
Innovation Development Manager, Oxford Instruments Plasma Technology

Geoff is a plasma physicist by training; a scientist, an engineer and technologist during the day but, at heart, he is an inventor and an innovator. His career began at Oxford University studying plasma technology for pollution control, then AWE Aldermaston and high energy pulse-power physics and engineering, finally arriving at OI Plasma Technology around the turn of the century to develop plasma systems for the modification and manipulation of materials and surfaces at the nanoscale.

In recent years, he has been developing his Innovation team at Plasma Technology to support current products and develop the products yet to come.

Dr Keith Dicks

Dr Keith Dicks
Senior Applications Specialist, Oxford Instruments NanoAnalysis

Keith has worked in materials characterization his entire career, first working at Fulmer Research Institute in 1973 as a Research Technician and then later at British Leyland as their metallurgist.

In 1978 he joined the Experimental Techniques Centre of Brunel University as a researcher working with SEM & TEM, EDS, WDS and light microscopy whilst studying for an MSc in metallurgy. He took that experience to GEC Hirst Research Centre in ’84 and led the Applied Electron Optics Group, principally characterizing semiconductor devices and optimizing manufacturing processes.

In 1994, he joined Oxford Instruments Analytical, and have specialised in EBSD, both in product management and applications.
