High-uniformity bake plates have been displacing convection ovens for well over two decades in the microelectronics industry. The disadvantages of variable temperature zones, lengthened cure times, and considerable particle contamination have been thoroughly analyzed and confirmed. Although temperature uniformity remains the primary advantage for precision hot plates, virtually eliminating skinning effects for thin-film (< 1-5…
Click Here to Read MoreOver the past decade, Brewer Science has developed and published various methods of creating a planar surface over three-dimensional (3-D) structures. Sharing these results invariably leads to a potential customer asking, “Can you fill the holes in my substrate that are x in size?” The short answer to the question is “Yes, we can.” Filling…

(Jim) Lamb III, Brewer Science Corporate Technology Strategist and Director of the Printed Electronics Technology Center, spoke to the Springfield, MO, community about printed electronics and what we can expect to see in the future. His interesting and informative presentation described…
Click Here to Read MoreAs semiconductor devices evolve, smaller and smaller feature sizes are required to achieve the performance desired by the consumer. Smaller features give rise to lower power consumption for mobile devices, less expensive devices due to the ability to manufacture more chips per wafer, and faster overall speed. Why multilayer? Smaller feature sizes also lead to…

But the idea and creation of wearable electronics occurred long before the cell phone or even the desktop computer. Brewer Science creates materials used in the sensors and MEMS devices that enable…

That’s the Jacques Thibaud String Trio, an award-winning group Brewer Science helps bring back each year to stage both public and private concerts. Those events are among the perks offered to…

On November 16th, we cruise over to Santa Clara, California, to participate in the IDTechEx Printed Electronics Show, along with the most brilliant minds in printed electronics. Printed electronics provide a glimpse of a more connected future, one where electronic components are…

While that 16-bit marvel is now a relic in the computing world, that little event in Tokyo has become one of the biggest semiconductor manufacturing and supply chain events in the world. And this year, SEMICON Japan is celebrating its…

Manufacturers are wishing Rosie would make a comeback — and this time they’d like her to vie for a leadership position as well. Though women now make up about 47 percent of the…
Click Here to Read MoreFor most of the relatively brief history of modern computing, progress has been measured in shrinking by nanometers. By making transistors smaller and smaller, engineers have been able to pack more transistors on smaller chips. More transistors per chip mean faster, more powerful computers that can fit into smaller devices. These microprocessors have made possible…
