TOKYO - Jeudi 14 Février 2013 [ME NewsWire]

(BUSINESS WIRE)--Toshiba Corporation (Toshiba) (TOKYO : 6502) et NuFlare Technology, Inc. (NFT) (JASDAQ : 6256) se sont vu décerner le 59e prix Okochi Memorial Grand Production pour leur codéveloppement et leur application pratique des scripteurs de masque à faisceaux d'électrons. La cérémonie de remise des prix se tiendra le 22 mars à Tokyo.

Les circuits LSI sont fabriqués en utilisant des outils de lithographie pour projeter et rétrécir les configurations de circuits maîtres sur des galettes. Les configurations de circuits maîtres sont d'abord écrites sur des masques par des scripteurs de masque EB. Précédemment, la plupart des scripteurs de masque EB utilisaient des faisceaux ponctuels pour écrire les configurations, et il fallait que ceux-ci devienne ... Read more »

--For Development and Application of LSI Mask Writers--

TOKYO - Wednesday, February 13th 2013 [ME NewsWire]

(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Toshiba Corporation (Toshiba) (TOKYO:6502) and NuFlare Technology, Inc. (NFT) (JASDAQ:6256) have been awarded The 59th Okochi Memorial Grand Production Prize for their joint development and practical application of electron beam (EB) mask writers. The award ceremony will take place in Tokyo on March 22.

LSI circuits are fabricated by using lithography tools to project and shrink master circuit patterns onto wafers. The master circuit patterns are first written on masks by EB mask writers. Previously, most EB mask writers used point beams to write the patterns, and these had to become smaller with the scaling of LSIs. This increased the write time for masks and became the key challenge in improving productivity in mask making.

Toshiba and NFT together developed a practical EB mask writer with better writing accuracy and productivity th ... Read more »
