Silicon Genesis Corp. (SiGen), a company focused on processes and technology for engineered substrates, has signed an equipment development and supply agreement with NorSun AS, a manufacturer of monocrystalline silicon wafers.
Under the agreement, NorSun will evaluate SiGen's PolyMax kerf-free substrate samples made at SiGen's new pilot manufacturing facility and collaborate in optimizing the high-volume manufacturing equipment design that can process silicon ingots into kerf-free wafers of 150 um thickness and below. The agreement also includes commercial terms for supply of HVM production equipment to NorSun.
