Micro-Physical AI: The Atomic-Scale Frontier of Physical AI and the Future of Materials Discovery

Daisuke Okanohara Daisuke Okanohara

What is Physical AI? Current LLMs (Large Language Models) learn about the world from text. Through this, they incorporate the knowledge accumulated by humans so far and are already having a major impact on the world. However, to borrow Plato's words, text is merely a "shadow" of reality. Text only records a portion of what humans have been able to verbalize, and the overwhelming majority of phenomena occurring in the physical world have not yet been turned into words.

What Is the Semiconductor Front-End Process? A Materials Simulation Guide to Deposition, Lithography, Etching, and CMP

Marketing team Marketing team

Semiconductor devices are manufactured by forming nanoscale structures on silicon wafers. This involves repeating numerous processes such as film deposition, photolithography, etching, ion implantation, and planarization to create fine circuit structures on the wafer. In these manufacturing processes, the physical properties of the materials and the reactions occurring at the surface and interface significantly impact device performance and yield. In recent years, the micro-scale of devices has been a key factor.
