What's This Course About

Semiconductor Process Fundamentals Masterclass gives you comprehensive knowledge of the CMOS process modules and process flow used in modern semiconductor manufacturing. Understanding how each module works and how modules are integrated is essential for engineers and technicians who need to control processes, solve problems and improve yield. This masterclass is designed for process, equipment, yield and integration engineers, technicians and technical professionals who are new to or growing in the semiconductor industry.

You will start with CMOS process modules and the process flow, covering wafer preparation, oxidation, photolithography, etching, thin film deposition, ion implantation, diffusion and annealing, chemical mechanical planarisation and metallisation. You will learn the purpose of each module, the key equipment and process parameters, and how they come together in a typical CMOS flow from isolation and well formation to gate, source and drain and interconnects.

The second topic focuses on CMOS process integration and performance, examining how process variation and interactions between modules affect transistor characteristics, reliability and yield, and how metrology, inspection and statistical process control are used to keep processes in control. You will work through practical examples of common process issues and their root causes. By the end of the masterclass, you will understand the CMOS manufacturing flow and be better equipped to support process control and yield improvement.

Dr. Alfred Ang brings an engineering and research perspective to semiconductor technology: his doctoral research at the National University of Singapore was in microelectronics and quantum effects in semiconductor devices, built on a first degree in Physics. He also holds an MSc in Electrical and Electronic Engineering from NTU and spent more than 20 years in the defence, electronics and semiconductor industries, where he co-invented more than 20 US patents and published more than 20 peer-reviewed papers. Today he is the Chief Technology Officer of Tertiary Infotech Academy and founded Tertiary Infotech Sdn. Bhd. in Malaysia in 2016.

In Mastering Semiconductor Process Fundamentals for CMOS Process Integration, Dr. Ang explains how chips are made and why they behave as they do. Learners cover semiconductor materials and device physics, wafer preparation, oxidation, lithography, etch, deposition, doping and CMP, and how these steps are integrated into CMOS devices, together with metrology, defects and yield. His research in microelectronics and quantum effects helps learners understand what happens inside a transistor as devices shrink, and his industry experience connects each process step to real manufacturing and product decisions.

is an accomplished IT and data specialist with over 20 years of experience in academia, ICT leadership, and professional training, with a strong focus on data analytics and Excel-based solutions. He has developed and delivered specialized training programs on Statistical Data Analysis with Excel and Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) for Excel, equipping learners with advanced data manipulation, automation, and reporting skills. His expertise extends to automating institutional reporting systems, where he successfully streamlined academic records management through Excel-based tools, integrating macros and automation to improve efficiency and accuracy. As a trainer and consultant, Dr. Siraj has taught Excel to diverse audiences, including university staff, administrative teams, and professionals in banking, security, and education, ensuring they can apply Excel for decision-making, statistical modeling, and process automation. His practical mastery of Excel is complemented by his deep knowledge of office automation and ICT project management, making him a highly sought-after trainer in data analysis and productivity tools. With his blend of hands-on technical expertise and instructional experience, Dr. Siraj stands out as a credible authority in leveraging Excel to drive organizational efficiency and data-driven strategies
