The European conference on microelectronic trends, roadmaps and strategic alignment
EUREF-Campus, Berlin, Germany

With the implementation of the EU Chips Act and Germany’s High-Tech Agenda, the European semiconductor industry is entering a phase of execution in which strategic objectives are being translated into investments, infrastructure, and industrial value creation. Early orientation is therefore becoming a decisive factor. 

Against this backdrop, the Research Fab Microelectronics Germany (FMD) is launching FIRST – Fast Innovation through Research in Semiconductor Technologies. FIRST is a new European trend forum for the microelectronics ecosystem and its key application industries.

Further information on the programme and registration is available at first-by-fmd.de.

PFAS restrictions by EU: display industry affected

Written by

11.02.2022

The EU is committed to phasing out all per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). However, if PFAS cannot be demonstrably replaced in certain products and their use is essential for society, exemptions are possible.

The DFF (Deutsches Flachdisplay-Forum e.V.) therefore recommends that the use of PFASs be carefully examined to be able to act on exemptions in time. Per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances are a large family of synthetic chemicals. They are used in many areas, among other things because of their heat-stable and water- and grease-repellent properties. In particular, they are used in aerospace, defense, automotive, textile (leather and clothing), construction, household, electronics, firefighting, food processing and medical products. They are also used in display technology: for example, all liquid crystals for IPS and FFS displays contain PFAS to ensure proper functioning.
