PulseForge Achieves Record Photonic Debonding Orders in Q1 2025, Signaling Market Acceleration
“This milestone reflects both our customers' confidence and the industry's recognition of photonic debonding as a game-changing technology,” said Jonathan Gibson, CEO of PulseForge. “We’re proud to support global semiconductor leaders with a scalable, high-yield, and low-stress solution that significantly improves cost of ownership and throughput.”
Driving Forces Behind the Surge
• Advanced Packaging Adoption: With the exponential growth in AI chips and next-generation memory modules, PulseForge’s photonic debonding tools—paired with proprietary light-absorbing layer (LAL) coated carriers—are proving indispensable for handling ultra-thin wafers and sensitive architectures.
• Strategic Partnerships: In Q1, PulseForge expanded key alliances with tool integration partners and received new collaboration requests from Tier 1 semiconductor toolmakers, broadening customer reach and tool availability.
• Notable Customer Wins: Leading IDMs, memory manufacturers, sensors and neuroelectronics manufacturers, robotics companies, energy storage manufacturers, aerospace companies, and a variety of other customers with applications that have delicate substrates requiring temporary bonding and debonding processes are gearing up to deploy photonic debonding. This underscores a major market validation for photonic debonding.
Technology with a Competitive Edge
PulseForge’s unique photonic debonding solution uses high-intensity pulsed light in tandem with engineered LAL-coated carriers to release temporarily bonded device wafers, without the mechanical stress or light-induced damage from traditional methods such as laser debond. This enables:
• Superior wafer integrity for fragile and sub-20 µm thin wafers
• Faster throughput than laser or mechanical debonding methods
• Industry best cost of ownership through reduced consumables and tool downtime
Enabling the Future of 3DHI and AI Acceleration
As semiconductor manufacturing shifts from monolithic scaling to chiplet-based and 3D heterogeneous integration (3DHI) strategies, photonic debonding is emerging as a cornerstone technology for enabling scalable, high-performance packaging. PulseForge continues to drive this transition forward with a portfolio of modular systems, advanced carrier solutions, and deep integration expertise.
