COMMERCIALIZES DIIODOSILANE TO MEET GLOBAL DEMAND FOR NEXT-GENERATION SEMICONDUCTORS MORRISVILLE, Pa. (June 26, 2018) Gelest, Inc. announced today it has commercialized diiodosilane to meet the global demand of the semiconductor industry for next-generation semiconductor chips. Gelest s dedicated diiodosilane plant in Morrisville, Pa., is fully operational and can produce commercial quantities of diiodosilane with purity in excess of 99.9%. Diiodosilane is a key chemical precursor used by semiconductor companies worldwide in the development and scale-up of next-generation semiconductor chips that require high throughput, highly conformal silicon nitride thin films. Diiodosilane is typically deposited by plasma-enhanced atomic layer deposition (PEALD) to create the silicon nitride thin film. Gelest sees a significant increase in demand for high purity diiodosilane driven by development and production of semiconductor chips requiring silicon nitride thin films at low thermal budgets. Diiodosilane is a critical material that enables further miniaturization of semiconductor chips, said Dr. Jeffrey T. DePinto, Business Manager Silanes & Metal Organics. Our expertise in high purity silicon precursors for the semiconductor industry has allowed us Page 1 of 2
to optimize the synthesis and scale-up of diiodosilane with the highest possible purity and lowest cost. Furthermore, Gelest has been developing iodosilane precursors for silicon nitride thin films for many years. The company has been granted a key patent, Silicon-based Films Formed From Iodosilane Precursors and Method of Making the Same, that claims a method for depositing silicon nitride thin films using iodosilane precursors. About Gelest Gelest, Inc., headquartered in Morrisville, Pennsylvania, has been a leading manufacturer and independent producer of specialty materials for the semiconductor industry for more than 25 years. Gelest is recognized worldwide as an innovator, manufacturer and supplier of commercial and research quantities of organosilicon compounds, metal-organic compounds and silicones.
