ecently Plasma-Therm, a semiconductor equip- ment supplier, and the California NanoSystems
Institute at the University of California, Los An- geles, co-sponsored a technical workshop focused on advanced plasma processing. Nearly fifty graduate students, post docs, professors, and local engineers with backgrounds in electrical engineering, physics, chemistry, materials, and biosciences attended to learn about applying plasma etching to the fabrica- tion of electronic, photonic, medical, and nanoscale structures.
Presentations progressed from fundamental vacuum science, plasma generation, and etching mechanis- ms to leading edge etch processes for deep silicon, III-V compound semiconductors, dielectric materials, and metals. Steve Franz, Nanoelectronics Research Facility Manager and former CNSI Cleanroom Mana- ger commented: “There was a wealth of information condensed into a single day and the speakers did a great job to avoid overloading the audience or sacri- ficing too much detail. The material was presented in a logical order and generated many very positive comments.”
Dr. David Lishan, Plasma-Therm Principal Scien- tist, workshop organizer and one of the instructors explained: “We see our role as an equipment vendor providing more than technology, equipment and service. These workshops are a setting to demons- trate our commitment to education. Teaching plasma
