A pioneering new semiconductor technology developed by scientists at the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) has been selected as one of the first twelve UK semiconductor innovations to receive support from ChipStart UK, a new incubator programme set up by Silicon Catalyst.UK and funded by the UK Government’s Department for Science, Innovation and Technology (DSIT).
NPL’s HIDRA Vision is a new patent-pending semiconductor wafer imaging technique that tackles yield limitation in compound semiconductor manufacturing. This ground-breaking wafer imaging technology captures high-resolution images, with approximately two million points on the wafer, in a few minutes rather than hours or even days with traditional systems. HIDRA also captures detailed high dimensional information…
