WaferLab

Discover how a semiconductor device is made, process by process. WaferLab is an educational simulator and interactive encyclopedia dedicated to semiconductor manufacturing. Explore what happens inside a wafer fab, see how the wafer changes throughout each stage of fabrication, and dive deeper into technologies, equipment, materials, metrology, maintenance and the industry. PROCESS LAB Follow the fabrication process step by step across technologies such as NMOS, PMOS, CMOS, BCD and MEMS. Each stage shows what happens to the wafer, why the process is performed, which equipment is used and what result it produces. Synchronized visualizations let you follow the evolution of the device structure through dedicated views, including cross-section and an educational microscope. Each technology also includes a complete process guide designed to connect individual steps with the bigger picture of semiconductor fabrication. FAB LIBRARY Explore the world of semiconductor manufacturing through a technical library organized by topic: • fabrication processes • equipment and operating principles • device technologies and structures • cleanrooms and fab organization • roles and careers • preventive and corrective maintenance • metrology, defects and process control • yield, quality, KPIs and SPC • manufacturing and wafer flow • technical glossary INDUSTRY Explore the real-world semiconductor ecosystem, from design and manufacturing to wafer testing, packaging and final test. WaferLab introduces companies and key players across the supply chain, connecting them to the technologies, processes and equipment covered in the app to help you understand how the different parts of the semiconductor industry work together. LEARN VISUALLY WaferLab combines technical explanations with hundreds of educational visuals, procedural wafer-state representations, diagrams and multimedia content. Process Lab views are generated from the same process state, keeping the wafer transformation consistent from one step to the next. DESIGNED FOR CURIOUS MINDS, STUDENTS AND PROFESSIONALS Whether you’re discovering semiconductor manufacturing for the first time, studying the industry or already working in a fab environment, WaferLab lets you explore the entire process at different levels of depth. ALWAYS AVAILABLE Core content is built into the app and available offline. No account, no ads and no subscription required. WaferLab does not replace technical documentation, operating procedures or professional training. Visualizations and simulations are intended for educational purposes and do not represent proprietary process recipes.
