Entegris, Inc. NASDAQ: (ENTG ) is a leading provider of yield-enhancing materials and solutions for the most advanced manufacturing environments. Entegris’ customers include the world’s manufacturers of semiconductors and other electronics, as well their materials and equipment suppliers. Entegris operates out of its headquarters in Billerica, Mass. The company has about 3,500 employees in manufacturing, service center and research facilities in the United States, Malaysia, Singapore, Taiwan, China, Korea, Japan, Israel, Ireland, Germany and France. The company seeks to help manufacturers increase their yields by improving contamination control in several key processes, including photolithography, wet etching & cleaning, chemical-mechanical planarization, thin-film deposition, bulk chemical processing, wafer and reticle handling and shipping, and testing, assembly and packaging. Approximately 80% of the Company's products are used in the semiconductor industry. Manufacturing semiconductors is incredibly complex and requires levels of purity that are more stringent than any other industry. Entegris’ solutions help achieve these purity levels by protecting critical manufacturing materials from contaminants that are so small they are measured in width of atoms. In recent years, contamination control has become increasingly more difficult as semiconductor manufacturers drive their sub-20nm technology applications.〔(No3 September2007/9 AAQR-07-05-OA-0030 432-442.pdf 1 )〕 At the same time these manufacturers are experiencing incredible pressure to increase productivity in the fab and stay cost competitive. As a result, companies are making the move to invest in technology that increases yields by minimizing product defects caused by contamination. ==Products== Entegris products include: filtration products that purify process gases and fluids, as well as the ambient environment; liquid systems and components that dispense, control, or transport process fluids; high-performance materials and specialty gas management solutions; wafer carriers and shippers that protect the semiconductor wafer from contamination and breakage; and specialized graphite, silicon carbide, and coatings. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Entegris」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
