Key Terms

3 terms

sic mosfets technical

"MUSIC to Reduce Defects and Improve Throughput on Implants for SiC MOSFETs"

SiC MOSFETs are power transistors made from silicon carbide, a tougher semiconductor material that switches high voltage and current more efficiently and runs cooler than traditional silicon parts. Think of them as a sturdier, faster-moving light switch for heavy electrical systems: they reduce energy loss, shrink cooling needs and can lower overall equipment cost. Investors care because adoption of SiC MOSFETs can boost performance and margins for manufacturers and reshape markets in electric vehicles, renewable energy and industrial power systems.

boron doping technical

"Analysis of Resistance Performance of High Dose Boron Doping"

Boron doping is the deliberate addition of tiny amounts of the element boron into a material—most often silicon or other semiconductors—to change its electrical behavior. Think of it like adding a pinch of seasoning that makes a recipe conduct electricity differently; for investors this matters because it can improve device performance, manufacturing yield, and product differentiation, and therefore influence production costs, market competitiveness, and supply-chain or regulatory risks.

beamline technical

"leverages the architecture of the Axcelis Purion beamline to implant a sequence"

A beamline is a controlled path inside a research facility that directs focused beams of particles or very bright X-ray or light energy from a source to an experiment. Think of it as a specialized highway that delivers precise, high-energy tools scientists use to image materials, probe biological molecules, or test new drugs; its availability and performance can accelerate discoveries, attract collaborators and funding, and therefore influence the commercial prospects of companies tied to those breakthroughs.

BEVERLY, Mass., May 6, 2026 /PRNewswire/ -- Axcelis Technologies, Inc. (NASDAQ: ACLS), a leading supplier of enabling ion implantation solutions for the semiconductor industry, announced today it will participate in the Advanced Semiconductor Manufacturing Conference (ASMC) taking place May 11 - 14, 2026, at the Hilton Albany in Albany, New York. ASMC brings together manufacturers, equipment and materials suppliers, and academia to solve manufacturing challenges with innovative strategies and methodologies.

Axcelis technologists and collaborators will present during the technical forum on May 13 in Session 9: Equipment Optimization, including:

MUSIC to Reduce Defects and Improve Throughput on Implants for SiC MOSFETs
Presented by HC Jayashankar, ST Microelectronics
Coauthors: Bala Subbu, Jaganathan Sampathkumar (ST Microelectronics); Leonard M. Rubin, Wanchun Zhang, James Thomas, JunSheng Chan, Dwight Roh, Fulvio Mazzamuto (Axcelis Technologies)
Analysis of Resistance Performance of High Dose Boron Doping
Presented by Bohesharvind N. Murthi, Infineon Technologies (Kulim) Pte. Ltd
Coauthors: Chea Hui Lee (Infineon Technologies); Hank Chen, Wan Chun Zhang, Leonard M. Rubin (Axcelis Technologies)

Axcelis is also sponsoring ASMC's Opening Reception and the Women in Semiconductors (WiS) Conference, which is collocated with ASMC, on May 14. The WiS Conference will feature a panel discussion, "Empowerment in Action: Real Strategies for Women's Success", including Axcelis' Data Scientist Julia Okvath. The Conference and panel discussion are open to all.

"ASMC is an important forum for advancing manufacturing innovation," said Russell Low, President and CEO of Axcelis. "We are especially pleased to share our progress on MUSIC™, our new, patented Multiple Steps Implant Chain technique. This innovative technique leverages the architecture of the Axcelis Purion beamline to implant a sequence of recipes rather than running them individually, resulting in a significant throughput advantage and reduced cost per wafer."
