About ZeroMicron:
As an R&D company in wafer polishing technology, ZeroMicron has been in business for 4 years in the CMP (Chemical-Mechanical Processing) market. As significant advancements in the semiconductor industry demand new technologies to be developed, the company holds many technology patents for both commercial and defense arenas. Its application template designs are pervasive in several industries, such as manufacturing components for medical, aero-space, military, optical network, computer disk media, and communication devices that require close control of tolerance, thickness, flatness, parallelism, and finishing surface. Their design can fit on any existing polishing equipment with superiority in speed, temperature, pressure and uniformity.
ZeroMicron is a superior R&D player in its field. The company has constant profit and revenue growth since its inception. As a wafer polishing specialist in the global wafer processing playground, ZeroMicron has obtained product acceptance by several semiconductor power houses and assisted in the development of environment-friendly thin wafer production. Oftentimes, its products exceed all current SEMI standards by at least 30%, offer yield increase, ease production planning, and down-time reduction up to 40% while eliminating costly catastrophic blowouts and wipeouts that are currently traumatizing the silicon wafer polishing.
According to Francis Nguyen, President of ZeroMicron, with "ZM Exact Production Formula" (EPF), its templates and gears can be customized to specific applications and can also be designed to process different shapes and sizes of materials. ZeroMicron products have achieved 100% yield for the wafer polishing industries versus the current typical yield of 60%. Michael Smith, VP of sales, expects a substantial increase in sales revenue in 2005 from its innovative products.
