Soitec Announces New Generation of Advanced SubstratesSolutions Including Ultra-Thin SOI and Ultra-Thin BOX Support the Full Range of Applications and Device Architectures for the sub-45 nm Roadmap.
BERNIN, France, July 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Soitec (Euronext Paris), the world's leading supplier of silicon-on insulator (SOI) wafers and other engineered substrates used in the microelectronics industry, has announced today a new generation of advanced substrates that support all the applications and architectures on the industry's sub-45 nm roadmap. New solutions such as ultra-thin top silicon and ultra-thin Buried OXide (BOX) give device architects and designers complete flexibility in their choice of substrates for partially depleted (PD) and fully-depleted (FD) devices, including multi-gate transistor architectures (FinFET, Trigate).
The new generation of substrates is built on the highly successful 300mm Unibond(TM) XUT+ wafers, which are currently shipping to leading customers for the PD 45-nm logic market, and which are also under qualification or sampling with other customers in a variety of system-on-chip applications.
"To make strategic choices for 32 nm and beyond, Soitec customers now have a full range of options at their disposal," notes Paul Boudre, Soitec's COO. "Device architects can leverage substrate design in their solutions for scaling, low power, and greatly reduced threshold voltage variability, thus ensuring SRAM scalability, and in particular stability at low operation voltages and significantly improved soft error rate. This is a major advantage for IC design today. In addition, CMOS process simplifications, and advanced SOI memory solutions-like single transistor body cell or ZRAM- result in a lower cost-of-ownership for SOI ICs."
This new generation of substrates fabricated using the company's patented Smart Cut(TM) process is designed to meet the most advanced requirements in terms of defectivity, flatness and SOI thickness control of up to plus or minus10 Angstroms (A). The top silicon layer of these wafers is available in thicknesses ranging from just 20 nm up to 110 nm, while the BOX can be as thin as 10 nm. Options are also available like High Resistivity substrate and strained SOI.
Visit Soitec in San Francisco, at Semicon West, North Hall, booth #5428.
About the Soitec Group:
The Soitec Group is the world's leading innovator and provider of the engineered substrate solutions that serve as the foundation for today's most advanced microelectronic products. The group leverages its proprietary Smart Cut(TM) technology to engineer new substrate solutions, such as silicon-on-insulator (SOI) wafers, which became the first high-volume application for this proprietary technology. Since then, SOI has emerged as the material platform of the future, enabling the production of higher performing, faster chips that consume less power.
Today, Soitec produces more than 80 percent of the world's SOI wafers. Headquartered in Bernin, France, with two high-volume fabs on-site, Soitec has offices throughout the United States, Japan and Taiwan, and a new production site in the process of customers' qualification in Singapore.
Two other divisions, Picogiga International (Les Ulis) and Tracit Technologies (Bernin), complete the Soitec Group. Picogiga focuses on delivering advanced substrates solutions, including III-Vs epiwafers and gallium nitride (GaN)-based wafers, to the compound material world for the manufacture of high-frequency electronics and other optoelectronic devices. Tracit, on the other hand, focuses on thin-film layer transfer technologies used to manufacture advanced substrates for power ICs and microsystems, as well as generic circuit transfer technology for applications such as image sensors and 3D-integration. Shares of the Soitec Group are listed on Euronext Paris. For more information, visit http://www.soitec.com/.

EDS and Siemens PLM Software Deliver Best-in-Class Defense Logistics SolutionNew Defense Logistics Solution Combines EDS Services with Siemens Teamcenter Software to Rapidly, Efficiently and Securely Support Performance-based Logistics Contracts Globally
PLANO, Texas and FARNBOROUGH, England, July 15 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- EDS, a leading global technology services company and Siemens PLM Software, a business unit of the Siemens Industry Automation Division and a leading global provider of product lifecycle management (PLM) software and services, today announced that the two companies have joined to deliver a best-in-class Defense Logistics Solution that leverages EDS' extensive aerospace and defense (A&D) (http://www.eds.com/industries/aerospace/) logistics experience and internationally known IT infrastructure services, along with Siemens PLM Software's industry-leading Teamcenter(R) software portfolio.
This unique Defense Logistics Solution enables aerospace and defense OEMs, suppliers and defense services/agencies to significantly reduce the time, risk and expense associated with fulfilling defense logistics and performance-based logistics (PBL) contracts. Anticipated benefits include improved product quality, by following product configurations into the service stage of the product lifecycle, tracking product/part performance and capturing feedback to improve next-generation products; improving service by leveraging the solution's rules and roles to protect and deliver the most current operational information available; and gaining global support, with the two companies' presence in more than 60 countries around the world.
"As the A&D manufacturer's business ally, EDS brings extensive experience and service expertise in the implementation and management of defense logistics and MRO business activities," said Joan Davies, EDS segment leader of aerospace and defense. "Together with Siemens PLM Software, we can deliver a best-in-class solution for managing supply chains, support processes, assets and metrics associated with PBL programs, which can be rapidly deployed and operational, while maintaining the flexibility to adjust to varying customer requirements."
EDS will deliver the logistics and A&D experience, local presence and IT solutions needed to integrate the people, systems and processes required to rapidly deliver a strategically effective solution for PBL programs.
The solution is based on Siemens PLM Software's comprehensive Teamcenter software portfolio for PLM including maintenance, repair and overhaul (MRO). The new offering is tailored to the needs of organizations that support and service complex, long-lifecycle products such as aircraft, weapon systems, ships and power plants.
"Today's announcement represents a major step forward for our defense industry customers who need to expeditiously fulfill PBL contracts and drive profitability," said Steve Bashada, vice president of Teamcenter Applications, Siemens PLM Software. "Together with EDS we have created a flexible turnkey offering that will not only streamline the planning and deployment of the IT infrastructure and security requirements associated with PBL contracts, but also greatly simplify their administration. As the leading global supplier of PLM software to the aerospace and defense industry, we are proud to deliver this latest example of our continued industry support and to extend our commitment to deliver full lifecycle PLM from requirements to retirement."
PBL contracts establish a series of performance metrics that manufacturers, systems integrators and sustainment enterprises are measured against. In order to ensure success and maximize profits, defense contractors need to minimize the time necessary to become operational on any given PBL contract while ensuring they can track, measure and manage their progress with respect to the PBL metrics. To accomplish this, the Defense Logistics Solution combines recently announced service data management and logistics records management capabilities in the Teamcenter solution for MRO, with tailored EDS services and global capabilities.
