Semiconductors, or chips, are crucial for nearly all new electronics. You can find them in cars, phones, computers, and even coffee makers. The challenge is to make chips smaller, more powerful, and more efficient. This requires very complex systems and machinery, and that is exactly what we specialize in.
The challenge
Quicker, safer and more sustainable
The demand for better semiconductors is increasing. This new generation of chips needs to be not only faster but also safer and more sustainable. We are considering options like photonic chips, as well as the integration of chips into heterogeneous systems. Before we can begin manufacturing, testing, and integrating these chips and systems, we must first be able to produce and test the chips themselves. These are the biggest challenges.
The strategy
Expanding our existing knowledge
In the Netherlands, we are already highly proficient in building chip machinery. With NXTGEN Hightech, we are looking ahead: we are working on the next generation of semiconductor equipment. This will enable us to produce even more complex, efficient, and faster types of chips. We will also be able to test these chips more efficiently to reduce waste.
Once we have achieved this, we will take it a step further: we will integrate these various chips into advanced systems, known as packages. These "heterogeneous systems" are true game changers.
