Silicon Manufacturing & The Perfect Wafer Inside The Fab | Intel

Meet Dave Pivin, a Failure Analyst Engineer at Intel whose job it is to continuously push towards the production of a perfect silicon wafer. As Dave puts it, it's like "Looking in a million haystacks for a single needle". As silicon wafer production moves smaller and smaller, from 22 nanometer to 14 nanometer, imperfections in production are tough to see even with high-powered microscopes. Dave and his team of fellow scientists are charged with identifying the causes of these nearly invisible defects. Check out Dave's story, and stay tuned for more stories "Inside the Fab" at Intel.
