1. Entrepreneur star: Zhaohao nano-spelling as the next Hanweike;
The name of Zhaoxin Nano, a startup testing company, has come to the forefront. It was named by Huang Qinming, the chairman of Zhimao, and hopes that the company can achieve the benefits of one plus one and two in the "electronics doctor". Process testing to show strength.
After the technical transformation of the Institute of Technology, Zhaoyi Nano has the technology to detect ultra-fine particles under 20 nanometers, or even 7 nanometers and 3 nanometers in the semiconductor process. The team believes that this technology is like a hundred years ago. The microscope allows the doctor to distinguish the type of bacteria, which in turn allows the customer to prescribe the right medicine and improve the quality of the production. It is even labeled as the "Next Han Micro" by the Institute of Metrology.
It is understood that the company's name was personally finalized by Huang Qinming for about a week, and determined to invest heavily. The main consideration is that in the past, Maomao focused on the semiconductor processing and focused on the latter stage of the process, and Zhaohao Nano will extend to the industrial status of the front-end detection application. Can play one plus one more than two benefits.
Since the ultra-fine particle monitoring of the semiconductor manufacturing process below 20 nm is a blank area, the big factory mainly relies on the rule of thumb to judge the problem. In the blind state, the old way to find the problem, once using the 晟 nano technology, will be able to Breaking through the bottleneck of the scorpion, however, semiconductor manufacturing requires a period of re-learning for new tools.
Wu Boren, general manager of Zhaozhao Nano, is like a new LED light. But for the market, there are users who still use ordinary tungsten lamps. How to persuade them is a matter of learning. After all, brand new things, no history. The data can confirm that it takes a while to promote.
He Xinjia, chief technology officer of Zhaohao Nano, said that in the past, semiconductor factories used the rule of thumb to accumulate a large amount of data. Nowadays, new detection technology is adopted, new tools generate new data, and it is necessary to further compare with old data. The semiconductor process is also Will be able to innovate.

2. Taiwan's new nanoparticle detection company: no competitors;
The startup of Zhaoxin Nano, a startup testing company, has become a market topic in less than a year. The key is to master the unique nanoparticle detection technology, not only in semiconductor process applications, but also in the future. It will also be used in the pharmaceutical industry. Due to the rapid development of the market, The implementation of the fine system, but has planned to double the manpower, calling for more talent to join.
Referring to the development of technology, He Xinjia, chief technology officer of Zhaohao Nano, said that the current technology has no competitors, and the key is to extend the application of water to the detection of organic substances.
He Xinjia pointed out that in the semiconductor process inspection, in addition to the water-based process, there are still many related to organic, semiconductor process is also very concerned about the monitoring of "impurity", must be monitored by means of transcendence. For example, semiconductor process The last cleaning procedure requires the use of isopropanol or other non-volatile materials. However, in the end, such materials may still remain on the surface of the crystal. Therefore, nanoparticle detection can also be used in the cleaning process to help visualize the high-order semiconductor wetness. Process situation.
Not only in semiconductor applications, Wu Boren, general manager of Zhaozhao, said that in the first step, in addition to the initial development of semiconductor-related market development, the next step will be to develop applications in the pharmaceutical field, and to start from the Taiwan market and to develop close contact with international companies. The US market. For example, He Xinjia, the production environment of high-purity chemicals, also pays great attention to those particles in the solution. By using the key technologies, it can improve the management efficiency of high-purity drug suppliers and improve the production quality.
In the early days of development, the team was only 12 people, and the elite system was adopted. Wu Boren said that the recruitment plan will be carried out. I hope that this year, the manpower will double and find new talents to join. He Xinjia said that although the technology is not low, I believe Starting from basic skills, young people will be further promoted to professional level; he believes that the new team is more important to the heart, he uses positive encouragement colleagues, with a spontaneous attitude to solve problems.
Compared with Zhuke IC design big factory recruiting, Wu Boren said that it is very difficult to grab people from nearby companies, but the company provides incentives for “do not have to sell liver”, and hopes that “new ideas” will join. The welfare policy is as close as possible to the major shareholder Mao Mao, and because of the customized production, the relative production line scheduling system is a happier working atmosphere.

In less than a year since the establishment of the new detection company, Zhaoyi Nano, it has become a market topic. Zhaonai Nano is a subsidiary of the Zhimao Group and was named the “Next Hanwei Branch” by the Industrial Engineering Research Center. The company's team is also "more than Han Micro", aiming at the development of the "New Generation of Nanoparticle Monitoring System - SuperSizer" technology, the nano particle detection and upgrade, shorten the production quality control and exploration time, And help the semiconductor industry to innovate.
The Hsinchu camp area is the base of the IC design factory, but in the seemingly ordinary building in the corner of the A factory in Minhang Camp, there is no hole in the sky. The Taiwan startup company of Zhaohao Nano Technology, with only 12 people, is given the semiconductor. Advanced process is an important task in detecting technological breakthroughs.
The initial capital of the Zhaozhao Nano team was only 20 million yuan. It was a derivative new team of the ITRI's measurement center. Later, it was favored by Ze Mao and injected into capital. The capital amount was raised to about 200 million yuan, of which the company invested 3 cents. Second, it is the largest single shareholder, and Huang Qinming, the chairman of Zhimao Electronics, also serves as the director.
Zhaozhao Nano has national-level metrology research capabilities, and the development equipment is dedicated to the detection of nano-particles in the solution used in the semiconductor front-end process. The target precision grade meets the latest semiconductor process requirements. He Xinjia, chief technology officer of Zhaohao Nano, leads the R&D team. He also recruited Wu Boren, a qualified senior in the LED industry, as the general manager to assist in market development.

Although the company has been established for less than one year, it has the characteristics of the Institute. The team has set a long-term development goal. It has obtained the "New Generation Solution Nanoparticle Monitoring System" from the Institute of Technology, plus the Mao Group. Blessing, the director of the ITRI's Measurement Centre, Lin Zengyao, became the next Hanweike.
Looking back at the company's entrepreneurial journey, He Xinjia bluntly said that it was originally a concept. It was brewed for three months, hoping to change many invisible detection defects below the 20 nm process. I didn't expect to make a mistake, and the development in the past five years. The faster you come, the more blessings you have, the more you started your business with your partner last year, and officially gave birth to a new company.
At the beginning of the establishment of Zhaozhao Nano, he encountered many difficulties, but He Xinjia pointed out that under the leadership of the senior engineers of the Industrial Engineering Research Institute, the development of technical products received sufficient financial support, especially the support of Liu Junting, vice president of the Industrial Research Institute. Zhaohao successfully created, and helped a lot in the last road. Now it is entering the market to develop.
As Dickens's "Tale of Two Cities" mentioned "that is the best era and the worst era"; Zhao Boren, general manager of Zhaohao, said that entrepreneurship really has courage. Now entrepreneurship is the worst era and the best era. As long as the company has a unique technical mastery, it is a marketing effort.
As the market has gradually opened up, the Zhaoxu team has set a growth strategy. In the first year of its establishment, the most conservative estimate, even if it is not damaged, must at least expand the customer base. The current situation is not optimistic, but the team believes that everything is It is difficult to get started. As long as you pass the test, you will be able to challenge the loss in two or three years, which is even faster than the 12-year loss of Hanwei.
Zhaohao also cooperates with major strategic partners to set up the direction of international market. In the future, it does not rule out the capital increase plan, but the premise is that we hope to make money first. Zhao Yanliang, manager of Zhaohao Manufacturing Department, mentioned that Zhaohao is actually more than Hanwei. Strategic development, in a fully localized team combined with international market development, the growth space is relatively larger.
The key to the development of the company is the “New Generation Solution Nanoparticle Monitoring System” of the Institute of Technology, which He Xinjia said, can help the semiconductor to “see clearly” many ultrafine particles under the process of 20 nm. Test technology can see the particles clearly, adjust the process, and can also improve and avoid defects.
According to the introduction, the principle of the nanoparticle monitoring system in the new generation solution is to atomize the chemical solution to measure the particle size and distribution of the chemical solution. This measurement method can only detect 40 by breaking the current equipment. The limit of the particles above the nanometer, the range of the measurable particles is expanded to 3 to 1,000 nm, which is expected to solve one of the problems faced by the continuous miniaturization of the semiconductor process, and help the industrial innovation and development.
