Essential Reports
Techcet Group Releases Reports on Critical Semiconductor Materials
Austin, TX (12 March 2004) — Techcet Group, LLC has released its 2003/2004 Critical Materials Reports highlighting resource and supply issues for raw materials vital to the semiconductor industry. The reports were commissioned by International SEMATECH and subsequently have been made available to other customers.
Material Suppliers Feel the Pinch
Each year, Techcet Group LLC (Genoa, Nev.) updates its critical materials report, which is designed to flag supply chain issues likely to affect the production of semiconductor devices. Commissioned by International SEMATECH (Austin, Texas) and available for the first time to the wider industry, these studies look for weaknesses in the supply chain and are used to evaluate the risk factors that threaten the health of the materials market. “Some of the more vulnerable suppliers are unable to maintain the levels of R&D spending needed to compete at advanced technology nodes, even at 90 nm,” said Lita Shon-Roy, one of the partners at Techcet. Though there have been many acquisitions in recent years among various suppliers, Shon-Roy says it is likely that even fewer companies will play in the 65 nm device manufacturing arena.
