Tighter Collaboration Needed Between Nanometer-Node Process Developers and Wafer Fab Managers

The rapidly growing application of SlurryScope™ systems at major semiconductor wafer fabs has begun to stimulate the need for tighter collaboration between nanometer-node process developers and the wafer fab managers who oversee the quality/delivery of slurry used during chemical-mechanical planarization (CMP) process. Minimizing large particle counts (LPCs) in undiluted slurry at wafer planarization and polishing steps is becoming increasingly critical as complex chips are manufactured at ever finer geometries.

Enzymes May Have a New Role as Intelligent Nanomotors in Medical Applications

Enzymes, workhorse molecules of life that underpin almost every biological process, may have a new role as "intelligent" micro- and nanomotors with applications in medicine, engineering and other fields. That's the topic of a report in the Journal of the American Chemical Society, showing that single molecules of common enzymes can generate enough force to cause movement in specific directions.
