Ultrasonic Transducer in the wire bonding machine is a key component to determine its bonding speed, and is demanded to be downsized with keeping high rigidity performance for high-speed bonding ...process. In this paper, a modeling of the ultrasonic transducer vibration and a new ultrasonic transducer with slit structure near the fixation parts is discussed. The piezoelectric element designed by an analytical model has 45% lighter weight than the conventional one. The slit type ultrasonic transducer newly proposed and simulation by finite element method has 66% lighter weight and 2.44-times higher rigidity than the conventional one. As a result, the slit type ultrasonic transducer enable 200G acceleration motion at Z direction of wire bonder from 160G by previous one and it shorten 33% of rising ultrasonic vibration time. Finally, it makes 17% faster cycle time to make wire, it has a potential to improve productivity a lot.
A Si pn junction diode-based electron beam detector with high sensitivity at low acceleration voltage and high readout speed is reported, by using steep pn junction formation technology. A high ...sensitivity wide spectral response photodiode using high concentration surface layer with steep impurity concentration profile was applied to the detector in order to enhance sensitivity performance toward low acceleration voltage incident electron with short penetration depth in Si. A 51.8% quantum efficiency at 1kV acceleration voltage was obtained. Also, a reduction of detector’s capacitance was obtained by introducing low concentration Si substrate and multiple signal readout structure for improvement of signal readout speed.
