  - Analysts: “Long, dark season” ahead
    Many OEMs held off on the usual holiday-season production ramp amid expectations of weak consumer demand due to the global economic crisis, and this has created a ripple effect all along the electronic systems supply chain from ODMs and EMS companies to chip packaging and foundries, and ultimately causing a shortfall in 4Q08 chip orders, notes Gartner in a research report.
- Tech News
  - Haze and sun for mask symposium
    Ever since lithographers began exposing with 193nm DUV light, photomasks have accumulated photochemical haze that eventually congeals into crystalline defects.
  - Inside Oxford/TDI’s HVPE technique for InGaN growth
    TDI, an Oxford Instruments company, recently announced that it has developed a hydride vapor phase epitaxy (HVPE) technology that is based on a GaCl3-InCl3-NH3 system.
  - KLA-Tencor gets the noise out with latest plasma monitor
    KLA-Tencor recently introduced the PlasmaVolt X2 for measurement of plasma chamber conditions in semiconductor wafer processing systems.
