Porotech Selects ClassOne Solstice® Single-Wafer Platform for Development and Manufacture of GaN Products
14 Mayo 2024 - 8:00AM
ClassOne Technology, a leading global provider of advanced
electroplating and wet processing tools for microelectronics
manufacturing, and Porotech, a pioneer in gallium nitride
(GaN)-based semiconductor technology and a global fabless microLED
provider, today announced that Porotech has selected the ClassOne
Solstice® single-wafer platform for the development and manufacture
of GaN products for applications requiring silicon wafer
substrates.
The devices being developed by Porotech target
ultra-high-density and energy-efficient microLED microdisplays for
augmented reality (AR) applications, wearables, and smart devices.
To pursue these microLED applications, Porotech is leveraging its
proprietary paradigm-shift technologies: its PoroGaN®
GaN-on-silicon materials platform and Dynamic Pixel Tuning® (DPT®)
microLED-on-silicon (µLEDoS) technology, which can be engineered to
produce light at wavelengths across the visible spectrum.
“Porotech is tackling mass-production challenges with partners
in the µLEDoS supply chain, integrating wafer manufacturing, hybrid
bonding, IC design, packaging, and assembly solutions. ClassOne’s
Solstice plating technology provides a reliable and efficient
foundation for the development of key process steps that will
support the route to improved yields through utilization of larger
silicon wafer sizes,” said Porotech CEO Tongtong Zhu. “We look
forward to working with the team at ClassOne to bring the
industry-leading performance benefits of PoroGaN and DPT to display
applications in the next few years.”
ClassOne Technology CEO Byron Exarcos stated, “As a leading
provider of plating equipment for microLEDs, we’re excited to
participate in the development and growth of Porotech’s
breakthrough, game-changing microLED technology and to help drive
these solutions toward mass production and high-volume
manufacturing.”
The Solstice single-wafer platform can combine multiple process
technologies and chemistries in a single, small-footprint
configuration for advanced chip packaging and surface preparation
applications. Available with up to 3, 4 or 8 chambers, the scalable
Solstice platform is suitable for both R&D and high-volume
manufacturing environments, delivering ultimate wafer uniformity
and process control. The system can also accommodate a wide variety
of substrates, from traditional silicon devices to compound
semiconductors and emerging materials such as glass.
