ASM Flowable Carbon

For the next era of semiconductor scaling

Introducing ASM Flowable Carbon

The semiconductor industry is now beyond a $1T market driven by the AI hypercycle and an unprecedented demand for compute. As logic and memory devices continue scaling into increasingly complex 3D architectures, patterning complexity is pushing conventional integration schemes to their limits. Narrower, taller, and more intricate features require new approaches to fill, planarization, and patterning that maintain topography control, simplify integration, and enable continued scaling.

 

To address this challenge, ASM has launched the market's first PECVD Flowable Carbon film, a breakthrough material engineered to advance how features are filled, planarized, and patterned for advanced technology nodes.
