The Chemical Mechanical Planarization Users Group (CMPUG) invites abstracts for the April meeting on Developing the “Next Generation” CMP Ecosystem. This annual symposium provides an international forum for academic researchers, industrial practitioners, and engineers to exchange knowledge on state-of-the-art research in CMP semiconductor technology. CMPUG fosters collaboration, networking, and discussion of opportunities, ideas, and technical advancements in the field.
Held on the campus of Lewis University in Romeoville, Illinois, this hybrid event will highlight research and innovation in CMP and post-CMP cleaning. A symposium session will be dedicated to current student researchers—emerging leaders in the CMP community—to present their work and engage with experts from academia and industry. Discussions will center on fundamental research, cutting-edge technologies, and challenges shaping the future of planarization and cleaning in semiconductor manufacturing.
The key focus areas for this year’s meeting include:
- CMP Consumables and Materials
- CMP Polishing and Metrology Tools
- CMP Process Integration
Thursday morning (April 3) will feature a short CMP and p-CMP cleaning course open to the CMPUG community.
