As part of its strategic plan for long-term growth in the semiconductor materials market, DuPont Electronic Technologies has established a Semiconductor Materials Technical Center in Taiwan's Hsinchu Science Park.
The Semiconductor Materials Technical Center is DuPont Taiwan Technical Center's (DTTC's) third facility in Taiwan.
The state-of-the-art facility includes single wafer processing capability, advanced analytical and metrology tools, and is staffed with top researchers in the field of semiconductor process technology. DuPont also has semiconductor materials research facilities in the United States, Europe, and Japan.
"Semiconductor technology is the primary enabler of the global electronics industry, and advanced semiconductor materials are a major focus for DuPont," said David B. Miller, vice president and general manager, DuPont Electronic Technologies.
"With Taiwan's large and rapidly growing role in the development of advanced semiconductor technologies, it is strategically important for DuPont to have research for advanced semiconductor materials capabilities near our customers, so we can better serve the needs of the marketplace."
