Cara,
I expect you are generally going to get a wall of silence from the actual
semi people (please prove me wrong!), as a lot of this stuff will be seen as
"competitive advantage", although I maintain that enviro stuff should be as
public domain as the owners can bear.   That being said, why don't you try
some of the following:
Genum in Burlington,
Tundra Semiconductors in Ottawa,
the semicon program at the community college in the Niagara peninsula
(sorry, I can't remember the college name)
Nortel Networks in Ottawa

and

Dr. Martine Simard-Normandin
Manager, Materials and Device Analysis
Centre for Microanalysis
ST Microelectronics (Canada) Inc.
185 Corkstown Road
Nepean, ON, Canada K2H 8V4

Martine's lab was part of Nortel Networks until recently.  She should be
able to point you in the right direction.

Good luck!

regards,
Bev Christian

Hello all!  I am back on to this list after a about 3 months of NO TECH
TALK!!  For those who remember I was working in Production Engineering
at Leitch in Toronto.  I'm now back at school doing some research in a
related area - Semiconductors.  My research includes wet etch process
control and material reclamation.

Is anyone else on this list working/researching this industry?

Does anyone have any information on similar studies that have been
done?  I have seen a few papers from manufacturing facilities in Japan
but nothing that I could visit...  Unless anyone wants to assist me
financially... ;)

Does anyone know if there are any lists such as this that deal
specifically with semiconductor manufacturing?

Thank you
