IES Equipment Partners and EV Group (EVG) are to co-host a stand at the upcoming International Micro and Nano Engineering Conference (MNE) in Southampton.
Taking place from Monday, 15th to Friday, 18th September at the National Oceanography Centre in Southampton, the 51st edition of MNE will explore advancements across the micro and nano engineering fields.
Key personnel from both IES and EVG - including IES Equipment Partners Business Development Manager, Rick Halle, and EVG’s Business Development Manager, Andrea Kronawitter - will be stationed at Stand 12 for the duration of the event. They look forward to mixing with delegates from across the semiconductor and compound semiconductor sectors, discussing industry developments, and answering queries on EVG’s lithography, bonding, nanoimprint, and metrology systems.
The MNE is a key date in the conference calendar for Equipment Partners, the IES division that provides advanced process solutions and responsive field service to semiconductor manufacturers across Europe.
EVG - the leading supplier of high-volume production equipment to semiconductor manufacturing – will use the pre-eminent trade event to showcase its industry-leading wafer processing equipment, including wafer bonding, optical lithography, nanoimprint lithography, metrology, and process technology, and engage with synergistic partners.
As part of MNE’s speaker programme - which features thought leaders from the industry, research and academia sides of the semiconductor world - EVG’s Andrea Kronawitter will deliver a presentation entitled: ‘Advanced Patterning For Smart Optical Devices: Integrating Inkjet Coating with Nanoimprinting for Precise Height Control and Minimal Residual Layers.’
The presentation is scheduled for Wednesday, 17th September at 11:15 am in the Plenary Hall as part of Oral Session 2. It will have a focus on Nanoimprint Lithography (NIL) and inkjet coating, primarily for AR devices.
This year’s MNE at the National Oceanography Centre in Southampton, overlooking the waterfront in the coastal city, promises to offer an iconic backdrop for the highly anticipated annual exploration of micro-nanofabrication, characterisation, and technology. IES Equipment Partners and EVG are excited to exhibit at MNE and meet industry peers from the UK, Europe and further afield.
Rick Halle, IES Equipment Partners Business Development Manager, said: “We are delighted that MNE is returning to the UK this year. This influential trade gathering provides us with the perfect opportunity to share a platform with our partner EVG, offering delegates an insight into the latest semiconductor manufacturing capabilities, including NIL.”
