Utilizes a one-of-a-kind vacuum-based plasma coating technology, designed to enhance the detection of contaminants on various surfaces, such as silicon wafers MoreLess
UNISERS is a pioneering company in the semiconductor industry, focusing on advanced contamination analysis solutions. The company has developed a groundbreaking technology that detects and characterizes the smallest particles on any type of wafer, which is crucial for improving semiconductor yield. This innovation not only enhances production efficiency but also significantly reduces environmental impact by saving billions of liters of water, tons of fossil fuels, and gaseous emissions.
UNISERS serves semiconductor manufacturers who require ultra-pure liquids and processing chemicals for chip production. These materials are often the main sources of contamination, leading to substantial losses in chip fabrication. By addressing this critical issue, UNISERS helps its clients achieve higher yields and lower operational risks.
The company operates in the semiconductor market and follows a B2B (business-to-business) model. It generates revenue by selling its proprietary contamination analysis solutions and offering related services to semiconductor manufacturers. UNISERS owns the intellectual property for all its products, ensuring a competitive edge in the market.
Founded by Dr. Ali Altun, who discovered the principle effect behind the technology during his research at ETH Zurich, UNISERS has quickly grown from a research project into a startup with significant industry impact. The company collaborates closely with partners in the IRDS yield enhancement community, who regard its technology as essential for overcoming key challenges in chip manufacturing.
