ThruGlas CE-300 — Wafer-Level Wet Etching (TGV)
TG-CE-300Design Tools
DR Laser · Semiconductor · Advanced Display · Production-scale equipment
Applications
- Wafer-level TGV chemical etching (LACE step 2)
- Glass interposers · Mini/Micro LED · 2.5D packaging
Technical Notes
- Operation flow: Load cassette → Vacuum operation & wetting → Single-chamber etching & QDR rinsing → FR ultrasonic cleaning → Heated N₂ drying → Unload.
- Chemistry developed in-house under DR Laser's LACE technology — optimised per substrate.
