Gigaphoton Installs Advanced G300K Laser for AI Chipset Packaging in Japan
  • The G300K, a 248 nm KrF laser designed for high power, high repetition rate, and long-life modular reliability, targets micro-via holes 10 micrometers or smaller and trench patterning to support 2.5D/3D packaging using chiplets for AI chipsets.

  • Gigaphoton, founded in 2000, has a long-standing role as a global lightsource manufacturer providing end-to-end support for semiconductor manufacturers, from R&D to maintenance.

  • The company emphasizes its comprehensive lifecycle support for customers worldwide, spanning research and development to ongoing maintenance services.

  • Gigaphoton Inc. has delivered and installed its advanced G300K KrF excimer laser system for ultra-fine ablation processing in semiconductor advanced packaging at a Japanese company, with installation completed in November 2025.

  • Interested parties can contact Gigaphoton’s Media/Corporate Planning Department at [email protected] for inquiries.

  • CEO Tatsuo Enami states that Gigaphoton is expanding R&D to apply excimer lasers beyond lithography, pursuing new fields to advance advanced packaging processes.

  • Enami highlights ongoing efforts to broaden excimer laser applications beyond traditional lithography, aiming to unlock broader use in the industry.

  • The G300K is integrated into equipment from ORC Manufacturing Co., Ltd. and is positioned to enable 2.5D/3D packaging using chiplets, with a focus on AI chipsets.

  • The laser operates at 248 nm, delivering high power and high repetition rate with long-life modules, optimized for micro-via holes 10 micrometers in diameter or smaller and trench patterning.

  • Gigaphoton is presented as a critical lightsource manufacturer and is actively pursuing broader applications for excimer laser technology.

  • Results from using the G300K will be showcased at SEMICON Japan 2025, which runs from December 17, 2025, highlighting the processing outputs achieved.

  • Gigaphoton will present its G300K results and outputs at SEMICON Japan 2025, including the integrated ORC Manufacturing setup, starting December 17, 2025.
