…approach offers improved performance at high frequencies, especially for 5G and mmWave applications. Optomec’s Aerosol Jet HD2 targets the existing $4 Billion market for back-end semiconductor packaging and assembly equipment. The Aerosol Jet solution works by precision jetting or “printing” an extremely fine mist of nanoparticle-based inks onto a surface. The HD2 can print features as narrow as 10 microns with placement accuracy under 5 microns. The nanoparticles are then sintered together, forming a solid metal conductor of copper, gold or silver. Insulating and adhesive materials can also be applied by the Aerosol Jet process with various integrated circuit packaging…
