Written at an introductory level, the book is a seminal source of information for non-engineers working in our industry, or for professionals marginally involved with semiconductors who require an overall view of how chips are manufactured. Its 29 chapters and six appendices cover the entire processing gamut: basic materials, devices and IC types, thin films, photoresist materials and processing, lithography, etch, interconnect, copper, low-k, test, material characterization, EHS and more.
The work is made even more useful and its information more readily retrievable by a 12-page index that doubles as a glossary. This is a book that belongs on the reference bookshelf of anyone who is interested in or is part of our industry.
