Virtual Fab Helps to Reduce Carbon Footprint of Semiconductor Manufacturing Processes
The Belgium-based research and innovation hub imec has developed a virtual fab model that enables the hub and its partners to assess current manufacturing choices, identify areas of focus, and project the future of the environmental impact of semiconductor manufacturing processes. Imec spotlighted the virtual fab at the 2023 SPIE Advanced Lithography + Patterning Conference in February as part of a quantitative assessment of the environmental impact of patterning in advanced IC manufacturing.

Understanding the Modulation Transfer Function and Beginning the Lens Selection Process Understanding the Modulation Transfer Function and Beginning the Lens Selection Process
Tue, Mar 21, 2023 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM EDT
Stuart Singer of Schneider Optics, Inc. discusses how to understand the modulation transfer function (MTF) with respect to lens performance, while avoiding complex math such as fast Fourier transforms. The MTF is often the most important aspect of a lens because it shows how well a lens is able to reproduce the object within its view. Singer shares the steps that are needed to begin selecting a proper lens that meets specific imaging and system requirements. Finally, he details which lenses are appropriate for various imaging systems. Sponsored by Optikos Corporation and Navitar Inc.
