Lecture 21: Silicon wafer manufacturing

The first step in integrated circuit (IC) fabrication is preparing the high purity single crystal Si wafer. This is the starting input to the fab. Typically, Si wafer refers to a single crystal of Si with a specific orientation, dopant type, and resistivity (determined by dopant concentration). Typically, Si (100) or Si (111) wafers are used. The numbers (100) and (111) refers to the orientatio...

Manufacturing strategy analysis and manufacturing information system design: Process and application

This paper speci"es the structure of a manufacturing strategy analysis (MSA) to manufacturing system design (MSD) interfacing model. In particular, it addresses the link between manufacturing strategic initiatives and the requirements of manufacturing information system (MIS), and proposes a structured approach to help a company identify the key MIS requirements that are needed to e!ectively su...

A DMAIC approach for process capability improvement an engine crankshaft manufacturing process

The define–measure–analyze–improve–control (DMAIC) approach is a five-strata approach, namely DMAIC. This approach is the scientific approach for reducing the deviations and improving the capability levels of the manufacturing processes. The present work elaborates on DMAIC approach applied in reducing the process variations of the stub-end-hole boring operation of the manufacture of cra...
