ESD Alliance Export Webinar
This webinar will be recorded. Registrants will receive a link to the recording after the event.
The discussion will help attendees understand why and how governments implement trade controls, what “exports” are and how they take place in different business contexts, and common due diligence methods – such as customer screening – that United States companies use to incorporate regulatory compliance into their business processes. Finally, the discussion will address recent regulatory updates which address current issues such as US-China trade relations and the anticipated effects of those regulations on the US semiconductor design ecosystem.
Following the presentations we will address questions from attendees as time permits.

California CHIPS Act Support: State and Local Government Incentives
California CHIPS Act Support: State and Local Government Incentives
SEMI has invited the California Governor’s Office of Business and Economic Development (GO-Biz) to discuss California state services and programs that can be leveraged in alignment with current and upcoming CHIPS Funding Opportunities. GO-Biz provides direct support to semiconductor businesses of all sizes and scopes via site selection and identification services, personalized incentive navigation services, liaison services, and local engagement and environmental process assistance.
Competitive CHIPS proposals will apply one or more state or local government incentive(s) to finance their project costs. In this webinar, representatives from GO-Biz will outline different state incentives, including the R&D tax credit and Partial Sales and Use Tax Credit, that can be used to meet this financing requirement. Additionally, they will detail how their multiple services may be leveraged to strengthen your project proposal plans. Following a short presentation, they will be available for a Q&A.

The nine to tenfold increase in critical electric field strength of SiC over Si allows high voltage blocking layers to be fabricated significantly thinner than those of similarly rated Si devices. This reduces device on-state resistance and capacitance, and therefore the associated conduction and switching losses, while maintaining high-voltage breakdown capability. However, lack of a well-designed edge termination structure diminishes the high voltage performance of SiC power devices. Indeed, under reverse bias, planar junctions exhibit breakdown voltages well below the ideal SiC drift layer limit because of electric field crowding at the junction periphery. Consequently, to maximize breakdown voltage, specialized edge termination structures are utilized. In this webinar, common structures that enhance the breakdown voltage of power SiC devices like metal field plates, floating guard rings, multiple-Junction-Termination-Extensions, and beveled edge terminations will be discussed. Emphasis will be placed on optimizing their fabrication by minimizing photolithography levels and processing complexity, while ensuring robust breakdown voltage capability at high wafer yields.
