Aerogen Systems develops point-of-use contamination control for semiconductor manufacturing, using a modular reactor that chemically destroys airborne molecular contamination where wafers sit exposed. Its systems aim to reduce yield loss and ultra-high-purity nitrogen purge costs for fabs, with a longer-term goal of eliminating the need for cleanrooms.
