Semiconductors are the foundation for advances in computing power, data storage, communication, and digitalization. At the same time, the demands on their manufacturing are increasing: structures are becoming smaller and more complex, innovation cycles are getting shorter, and production volumes are growing. To ensure quality, yield, and cost-effectiveness, even the smallest movements must be executed with the highest precision, and sensitive processes must be reliably controlled.

HOERBIGER offers a wide range of technologies for this purpose. Highly dynamic positioning systems from PI move and stabilize components down to the nano- and subnanometer range. Rotary unions and slip rings from Deublin reliably transmit media, power, and signals in wafer fabrication. Ultra-fast piezo-proportional valves from HOERBIGER enable precise and energy-efficient control of sensitive process steps.

In quantum optics, too, precision paves the way for the transition from the laboratory to industrial manufacturing. Technologies for silicon photonics and integrated photonic circuits support the development and scalable production of novel quantum applications.
