ISSM BACKGROUND<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The semiconductor industry has brought about a dramatic transformation to society in the half century since the invention of the transistor. In much the same way as the revolution that brought transistors to integrated circuits, the system LSI is a concept that will bring a paradigm shift that will impact across the global semiconductor, IT and electronics related industries. With the advent of the system LSI, in addition to the importance of scaling rules based technology development, it is now essential to establish a new scheme for semiconductor manufacturing technologies in order to meet requirements for system LSIs as technologies for a ubiquitous network society.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The semiconductor industry is going through a big transition to meet this change. As an industry heavily dependent on its manufacturing capability and productivity, the industry is shifting from an integrated device manufacturing model to more horizontal specialized manufacturing processes, as well as pursuing manufacturing cost reductions with 300mm wafer transition, a step-by-step investment approach, and the introduction of customized, small\/medium quantity production methods. The key words for competitive SoC manufacturing technologies are high quality, low cost, and high efficiency. Furthermore, environmental considerations are also becoming an important consideration for semiconductor manufacturing processes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Semiconductor manufacturing technology is reliant on the sum of the total of engineers’ experiences and the accumulation of know-how and IP. The complexity of the field prevents a shift to the systematization and universalization of technologies. In order to bring breakthroughs in semiconductor manufacturing to reflect changing and challenging new requirements, the International Symposium on Semiconductor Manufacturing (ISSM) was launched in 1992.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

ISSM is an annual conference of semiconductor manufacturing professionals dedicated to sharing technical solutions and opinions on the advancement of manufacturing science, technologies, and management disciplines. ISSM aims to establish new concepts for semiconductor manufacturing technologies and to promote them as systemized and universalized technologies. ISSM’s role has been to challenge the concept of shifting from “know-how” to “science” in semiconductor manufacturing technologies. The past twelve annual symposia have helped to shape the course of development of “manufacturing science,” as well as to create new manufacturing technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Symposium is held under the joint sponsorship of the Society of Applied Physics of Japan, the IEEE Electron Devices Society, Semiconductor Equipment and Materials International (SEMI), and Taiwan Semiconductor Industry Association (TSIA). ISSM, with its global range, continuously pushes technological development in order to promote the discovery and utilization of innovative technologies. ISSM’s mission is to achieve the continued prosperity of the semiconductor industry by bringing about breakthroughs in semiconductor manufacturing technologies through networking between engineers in research and development fields and their counterparts in the manufacturing field.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
