Kemesys manufactures slurries for CMP, distributes pads, conditioners, brushes and offers its world reknown expertise for polishing processes.

December 4, 2006: Based on its formulation capabilities and experience of the silicon polishing, KEMESYS is developing a silicon etchant optimized to enhance the cell yield of photovoltaic sensors.
The Solar industry is developing very fast in many European countries. The photovoltaic sensors are manufatcured on square Poly-Silicon substrates. |

|
Differently from the semiconductor manufacturing where the Silicon wafers require highly polished surface, this technology is looking for a flat but non reflective surface state.
The KEMESYS' silicon etchant is currently under evaluation at one of the European market leader of this promising industry.
Samples are available on request.
November 8, 2006: The KEMPAK has been recently completed by the high performance filters range of our partner Graver Technologies!
|
Graver Technologies is a member of the Marmon Group, an international group with sales exceeding $6 billion. The core competencies of Graver include the development and the manufacturing of separation, filtration and purification of fluids, process water and gases products. |
Besides products for beverage or pharmaceutical industries, Graver has developed a special product line for Semiconductor Applications qualified by a numerous Microelectronic manufacturers worldwide.
Since November 2006, KEMESYS is the official Distributor of Graver Filters for the European Semiconductor Market.
Don't hesitate to contact us for more information about the products for your applications!
September 11, 2006: KEMESYS will attend the 2006 International Conference on Planarization/CMP Technology held on October 12-13, 2006 in Foster City, CA.
On Thursday, October 12, at 9.40 a.m., Bernard Laborie will give the presentation “Development of a Custom-Designed Copper Slurry for the Fabrication of a RF-MEMS Device” co-authored with Gerfried Zwicker, Director of the Fraunhofer Institute for Silicon Technology ISIT (Germany) and Chairman of the German CMP User Group (GCMPUG).
This successful common development does illustrate how KEMESYS has developed a methodology enabling slurry formulation optimization in a fast and efficient manner.
During the two Conference days, KEMESYS will welcome you as well at our booth.
The full presentation is available upon request !.
June 20, 2006: KEMESYS is now representing DOOSAN DND, the CMP division of DOOSAN Group. DOOSAN Group is the 9th largest Cheabol and the oldest Korean Company (founded in the 19th century). The turnover is exceeding USD 15 Billions.
DOOSAN DND manufactures CMP equipments for oxide, tungsten, copper... for 200mm and 300 mm wafers, as well as stand alone cleaners (fully integrated or retrofitable units). In cooperation with the four major Korean Universities, DOOSAN has developed a new polisher concept.
Based on high Process and Hardware reliability, high throughput and low cost of ownership make DOOSAN CMP tools perfectly suited for high volume production. The two major Korean IC Makers have been using them in production for several years. Contact us for more information !

May 15, 2006: KEMESYS is receiving an increasing number of requests for technical services. We distinguish three major needs:
On demand analysis of chemicals, slurries and other CMP materials
CMP / Polishing process expertise
Specialties chemicals engineering
This service offering is detailed in a presentation available for our customers and partners. The full presentation is available upon request !
April 28, 2006: KEMESYS has completed the development of a Copper slurry for a major German research institute for MEMS applications. The first purchase order was received for this high removal rate, repeatable bulk Copper slurry. This initial success is opening the way to more MEMS specific developments. Contact us for more information !
April 4-7, 2006: This year again, KEMESYS exhibited at Semicon Europa in Munich in Hall A2, jointly on the JEMI booth. This week was very rich in interesting contacts and sales opportunities. Friday, April the 7th, at the International CMP User Meeting following the exhibition, Bernard Laborie introduced a paper about the 2nd generation of Ceria Slurry for ILD. The full paper is available upon request!

February 21-23, 2006: Kemesys attended the 11th International CMP Planarization for ULSI Multilevel Interconnection Conference held on February 21-23, 2006 in Fremont, CA. Together with Ara Philipossian from ARACA, Bernard Laborie introduced the poster "Frictional, Thermal and Kinetic Characterization of a Novel Ceria Based Abrasive Slurry for Silicon Dioxide CMP". The full paper is available upon request!
November 17-19, 2005: Kemesys has presented a poster at the CMP User Meeting Korea 2005. This poster is titled "Experimental and numerical analysis of a novel Ceria based abrasive slurry for Silicon Dioxide CMP" and is co-authoured by the University of Arizona and ARACA Inc. Documents are available upon request
November, 2005: Kemesys has completed the filing of its Ceria slurry. High Removal Rate, high planarization efficiency and excellent polishing uniformity are the major benefits of the Kemesys innovative formulation (patented). A Pre Metal Dielectric (PMD) application project is currently on going with an European Fab.
September 12-14, 2005: SEMICON Taiwan was held in the Taipei World Trade Center. Exhibitors from 600+ companies displayed products for 20,000+ visitors. Kemesys participated to the event on KROMAX booth, its distributor in Taiwan, Singapore and Malaysia.
