on september 6, 2024, the seminar on new quality productivity of localized components and the signing ceremony of collaborative innovation strategic cooperation were successfully held in pudong, shanghai. shanghai kaisitong semiconductor co., ltd. (hereinafter referred to as kaisitong), a subsidiary of wanye enterprise, and semiken (shanghai) semiconductor technology co., ltd. (hereinafter referred to as semiken) and other domestic integrated circuit component companies signed a strategic cooperation agreement, which opened up a new paradigm for the new quality productivity of the semiconductor industry.
in the past few decades, the semiconductor industry has been an industry with large input, slow output, long cycle and many bottlenecks. with the us export control, especially the new round of control since october 7, 2022, many equipment in the semiconductor manufacturing process have been stuck, such as lithography, ion implantation, etching, and coating equipment. there are many points that need to be broken through and it is difficult to overcome. among them, key components such as electronic chucks, rf power supplies, pfg/tpfg, etc. have also become key bottlenecks restricting the healthy, sustainable, and self-controlled development of the entire semiconductor industry.
dr. li yongjun, president of wanye enterprise and chairman of its subsidiary kaishitong, said that kaishitong has long been in the field of ion implantation and has basically achieved independent control of the domestic ion implantation machine supply chain. with the close cooperation of the upstream and downstream industrial chains, many key component projects of kaishitong have borne fruit. at the same time, after a series of scientific and technological research and development innovations, kaishitong's product testing performance is excellent and the maintenance cost is low, and it has been delivered to customers for production line verification.
dang junfeng, chairman of semiken, said that there are three main reasons for the bottleneck of key components such as rf power supply: first, the intersection of disciplines and lack of materials; second, whether it is possible to deconstruct professional categories and effectively organize talents together; third, whether there is a real test environment and real process verification, otherwise it is just talk. in the past, semiken was able to continuously obtain the approval of the head fab, obtain the vendor code, successfully achieve supply, and successfully pass all process verifications. it was mainly because it received the support of kaishitong, the chain leader, and had an accurate understanding of product demand information, process parameter requirements, beam control accuracy, phase lock accuracy, etc., and then through continuous testing, verification, adjustment, and iteration, the aggregation, quenching and innovation of domestic rf power supplies were achieved! today's seminar and strategic collaboration signing event are to further promote the chain leader + key component model to more peers. i believe that more companies will learn and draw on this model in the future. this is a great thing for domestic key component manufacturers to enhance their r&d capabilities, upgrade and iterate, and meet process requirements! it will also have a far-reaching impact on the entire semiconductor industry!
chen yu, managing director of yuanhe puhua, said that yuanhe puhua has invested in more than 200 semiconductor and hard technology related companies in 10 years, covering the design, manufacturing, packaging and testing, equipment, parts and materials companies in the upstream and downstream of the semiconductor industry chain, of which more than 40 have already gone public. kaishitong and semiken are both invested companies of yuanhe puhua, and they have made great progress in product research and development and customer introduction this year. as a "chain leader" enterprise of ion implantation equipment, which is very critical in the front-end of semiconductor wafer manufacturing, kaishitong has been driving the project positioning, research and development direction and test verification of domestic parts manufacturers such as semiken to solve the bottleneck problem of the supply chain. today, the "chain leader" brings together key component companies such as rf power supply, pfg, electrostatic chuck, ceramic materials, mfc, etc., which is of great significance. chen yu believes that the significance of localization of parts is not only the security, independent control and solution of the bottleneck problem of the supply chain, but also the acceleration of independent innovation of semiconductor equipment, thereby providing customers with better products and solutions, and providing a new paradigm for the collaborative upgrading and independent control of the semiconductor industry.
looking to the future, we believe that the signed projects of this strategic cooperation, including microwave and other rf power sources, plasma spray guns, electrostatic chuck materials, vacuum automation robots, ultra-high energy rf accelerators, high-precision gas flow meters and other key components, will be able to provide customers with better performance, lower costs, and autonomous and controllable products and service solutions under the leadership of the chain leader kaishitong, and will be able to bring "core" power to domestic semiconductors and fill the "core" gap.
