About the Company
SK resonac, which is a joint venture established with Japan's Resonac, is growing into a leader in the semiconductor etching gas area by localizing high-level etching gases that are highly dependent on imports and enhancing domestic technological independence.
SK resonac, which produces and sells etching gases that form fine and uniform circuits in semiconductors, aims to become a leading supplier in the etching gas industry based on its accumulated technologies and capabilities.
Among the various etching gases, SK resonac’s portfolio is focused on high-precision gases,such as Monofluoromethane (CH3F), hexafluorobutadiene (C4F6), and difluoromethane (CH2F2).In the future, SK resonac will also provide more diverse etching solutions.
Etching gases etch the shape of a space for circuit in the semiconductor prior to the circuit formation of semiconductor. They are in high demand as they are essential in achieving greater precision in 3D structures.
CH3F, an etching gas for nitride films in 3D NAND flash memory devices, is becoming more widespread with the increase of 3D NAND use. SK materials is the first and only manufacturer of CH3F in Korea.
C4F6 is used in the etching of oxide films for miniaturized DRAMs and 3D NAND flash memory devices. C4F6 has seen a significant increase in demand.
CH2F2, along with CH3F, is a gas used in etching nitride films in NAND flash memory devices. It has been widely utilized since 3D NAND has been increasingly used in the recent.
HBr is a gas used in semiconductor etching processes. It has excellent precision / vertical etching capabilities, whose usage is increasing due to the sophistication of semiconductors.
