• Increased throughput and capacity by designing and installing dispense and bonding tools for semiconductor processes, requiring thousands of lines of code, lasers and advanced optics, and linear motion systems.
• Tripled throughput by developing laser processes that utilize galvo-scanners and stage motion simultaneously.
• Improved in-process positional accuracy by 1000% using machine vision and multivariate regression.
• Automated production using 3- and 4-DOF robotics, and programmed motion with Galil controllers.
• Measured and improved astigmatism, asymmetry, alignment, and laser power using various tools.
• Reduced contamination by running control wafers through process steps, and improving based on Pareto.
