Jan 23 2013
Vacuum Expo 2012, recently held in Coventry proved a big draw for both European and international visitors and also attracted 12 new exhibitors according to organisers Xmark Media. Reports from the show floor indicated increased visitor numbers, who were mainly there to do business. Many exhibitors also said they had an excellent event with increased prospect numbers and plenty of high quality discussions taking place on their stands. Post show analysis has confirmed the visitor growth to be 30%.
The programme included a 'Thin Films' meeting led by Hayley Brown of Plasma Quest and the University of Surrey. It focused on metal oxides and optical thin films.
The one-day "Vacuum and Plasmas for Industry" meeting drew a sizable audience. Niall Macgearailt from Intel, Ireland, opened the meeting with a talk on the "Plasma Process Control in the Semiconductor Industry." He described the challenges of volume production world-wide and keeping control of the plasma processes to keep the yield high and the production line moving. Niall commented after the meeting "The combination of the Vacuum Expo and technical sessions provide an excellent networking opportunity. The large number of UK and European based suppliers offering innovative products and solutions are extremely encouraging."
