New Wafer-Level Microlens Molding Process From EV Group Extends

New Monolithic Lens Molding (MLM) capability enables up to eight-megapixel-and-higher-resolution devices Chiba, Chiba Prefecture Japan /PRNewswire/ - SEMICON JAPAN -- EV Group (EVG), a leading supplier of wafer bonding and lithography equipment for the MEMS, nanotechnology and semiconductor markets, today announced that it has developed a new micro-lens molding process that can enable volume production of very-high-resolution (up to eight megapixels and higher) wafer-level optics for use in smart phones, pico projectors and myriad other applications. The new Monolithic Lens Molding (MLM) capability, which was developed in-house by EVG's process development team, is available as an option on the company's IQ Aligner UV nanoimprint lithography (UV-NIL) system or can be upgraded to existing equipment. EVG expects to ship its first IQ Aligner with the MLM option in the first half of 2011.
SAN FRANCISCO – At the International Electron Device Meeting (IEDM) here this week, there were three apparent themes. First, the number of relevant technical papers was down this year. Second, there is still a lack of consensus about the next-generation transistor structure for the future nodes.
