Reinraumtechnik: Anforderungen und Herausforderungen in der Zukunft
No full textFor semiconductor components, the demand to improve performance and velocity as well as energy consumption is met through miniaturization. The continuing trend to miniaturize semiconductor structures can be observed since several decades and requires, among other things, sophisticated cleanliness technology. Cleanliness technology in this context is to be understood as the chain of all activities taken to control and reduce all contamination harmful to the product. Because of the very challenging particulate and outgassing contamination levels, semiconductor industry still claims technological and economic leadership in terms of cleanliness technology. But no longer only semiconductor industry is relying on cleanliness technology as the following case studies graphically demonstrate: In life science industries, mainly microbiological contamination is controlled to prevent users and patients from severe health issues caused by poor hygiene or cleanliness of the highly effective pharmaceuticals or very innovative medical devices. Space exploration combines nowadays the challenging cleanliness requirements of semiconductor and pharmaceutical industry to be in compliance with the planetary protection program, the guiding principle to preserve planetary and terrestrial conditions for future generations. And even automotive industry discovered the benefit of cleanliness technology almost ten years ago: Metallic micro sized particles (>50µm) were identified as critical contamination because they can cause malfunctions in fluidic and electronic vehicle systems such as antiblocking systems. By having a closer look on these three case studies, the increasing importance and on-going diversification of cleanliness technology can be shown and also the challenging future requirements of cleanliness technology over the next few years can be derived
Roadmap 2012
No full textChallenges such as health care, higher standards of living and quality consumer goods, increasing energy costs, depleting resources, and employment are the driving force to develop and exploit key enabling technologies that will facilitate new innovative products and systems. MicroNanoManufacturing Technologies are expected to support the development of next generation products, consequently the motivation for this roadmap is to present the summary of the strategies/feedback of the micro-nano manufacturing related community regarding technological and non-technological bottlenecks. Therefore, it includes the results of (i) a survey with European Technology Platforms, (ii) evaluation of workshops with regional clusters and (iii) brainstorming events with transnational clusters. All of these actions were performed by the European project MINAM2.0 "Paving the ground for the second generation of a highly effective, application oriented Micro-Nano Manufacturing community in Europe"
Paving the ground for the next generation of micro nano enabled products in Europe
No full textThis Position Paper represents a working document, developed with editorial support from the European Coordination and Support Action MINAM2.0 (NMP.2010.4.0-5 project no. 266801). It summarises the status of ongoing discussions in the European MicroNanoManufacturing community representing a Sub-ETP (European Technology Platform) of the ETP MANUFUTURE. Information from key players has been collected and assessed via two surveys: a 2009 survey to MINAM members with a feedback from 230 companies and research institutions and a 2011 survey, where 21 clusters, 14 ETPs and 8 Networks of Excellence across Europe were interviewed. The authors do not warrant the information contained therein to be free of errors. This document will be further developed with members and stakeholders and lead to a new Strategic Research Agenda (SRA) for the European MicroNanoManufacturing community (to be finalised by January 2012).

Going Beyond Counting First Authors in Author Co-citation Analysis
Get PDFThe present study examines one of the fundamental aspects of author co-citation analysis (ACA) - the way co-citation
counts are defined. Co-citation counting provides the data on which all subsequent statistical analyses and mappings
are based, and we compare ACA results based on two different types of co-citation counting - the traditional type that
only counts the first one among a cited work's authors on the one hand and a non-traditional type that takes into
account the first 5 authors of a cited work on the other hand. Results indicate that the picture produced through this non-traditional author co-citation counting contains more coherent author groups and is therefore considerably clearer. However, this picture represents fewer specialties in the research field being studied than that produced through the traditional first-author co-citation counting when the same number of top-ranked authors is selected and analyzed. Reasons for these effects are discussed
