Joensuu, Finland/Tokyo, Japan – December 5th, 2024 – Chipmetrics Oy, an innovative metrology solutions provider to the semiconductor industry, announces its participation at SEMICON Japan to be held December 11–13 in Tokyo. At SEMICON Japan, Chipmetrics will be demonstrating its 3D semiconductor metrology solutions, including the new PillarHall LHAR5 test chip that allows for quick and easy measurement of film growth on 3D structures with record high aspect ratios >1000:1.
“Japan is a core market for us, and we have solid business with partners such as Kokusai Electric and Meidensha,” says Chipmetrics CEO Mikko Utriainen. “This is one of the reasons SEMICON Japan is an important venue for us to demonstrate our ever-expanding portfolio of 3D chip metrology solutions, including the latest PillarHall chips, our new Area Selective Disposition test chip ASD1, as well as our VHAR1, Vertical High Aspect Ratio test chip. These products are already creating value for our existing clients and we’re looking forward to cultivating more mutually beneficial business relationships in Tokyo.”
At SEMICON Japan, Chipmetrics will feature in the EU Business Hub pavilion as one of approximately 40 carefully selected top EU semiconductor startups and SMEs with high growth potential. In line with the European Union’s growth philosophy and ambitions in the semiconductor industry, aiming to represent 20 percent of the global market by value by 2030, Chipmetrics is aiming to grow its already strong business with Japanese semiconductor players.
Chipmetrics’s PillarHall[i] test chip has driven research with Kokusai Electric, which has led to advancements in the company’s film forming technology[ii]. Meidensha meanwhile has showcased studies centered around pure ozone generation for Atomic Layer Deposition applications[iii], both helping Japan advance its semiconductor industry and positioning it for the challenges of the future with Finnish technology.
