Semiconductor Processors

Semiconductor Processors

Perform any or all of the following functions in the manufacture of electronic semiconductors: load semiconductor material into furnace; saw formed ingots into segments; load individual segment into crystal growing chamber and monitor controls; locate crystal axis in ingot using x-ray equipment and saw ingots into wafers; and clean, polish, and load wafers into series of special purpose furnaces, chemical baths, and equipment used to form circuitry and change conductive properties.

Key Competencies * Attention to Detail * Cooperation * Dependability * Stress Tolerance * Adaptability/Flexibility * Self Control * Concern for Others * Initiative * Independence * Persistence

Representative Tasks * Inspect materials, components, or products for surface defects and measure circuitry, using electronic test equipment, precision measuring instruments, microscope, and standard procedures. * Manipulate valves, switches, and buttons, or key commands into control panels to start semiconductor processing cycles. * Maintain processing, production, and inspection information and reports.
