Intermolecular's Tempus™ High-Productivity Combinatorial‚™ (HPC) workflow platform combines advanced combinatorial processing equipment and Informatics data management and analytical software into tailored R&D workflows that greatly improve efficiency at each stage of the overall R&D process.
Our workflows enable capability ranging from materials discovery and optimization to process integration and qualification for a wide number of applications. They deliver the capability to rapidly screen large phase spaces of potential solution sets, perform secondary screening of promising processes and complete in-depth analysis and integration testing for the best candidates. This allows our customers to generate robust, highly optimized solutions while reducing time to market and lowering development and qualification costs.
Wet Workflow Systems
Our Tempus systems for wet processing workflows consist of tools designed to apply our HPC methodology to innovate new formulations that meet critical processing challenges for front-end-of-line (FEOL) and back-end-of-line (BEOL) applications. Applications for Intermolecular's wet workflows include cleans, surface preparations, wet etch and strip, self-assembly processes and electroless deposition.
ALD and PVD Workflow Systems
Our Tempus HPC PVD and ALD workflows help leading IC manufacturers shorten time to market for enabling applications in high-k metal gate, advanced DRAM and emerging non-volatile memory technologies.
HPC Informatics
Our Tempus Informatics proprietary software collects, manages and analyzes data generated by our hardware systems and provides close integration with most metrology and test systems so that physical and electrical test results can be quickly assessed. This enables efficient, automated and integrated process control, data correlation and the rapid reporting of results.
HPC Test Chips
Because Intermolecular focuses on the integration of new materials into advanced devices, we have made considerable investments in proprietary test chip design and parametric test hardware to allow for optimization and seamless integration. Our proprietary test chips demonstrate combinatorial processing of complex integration schemes for full electrical characterization.
