The event provided a great opportunity to connect with the community and gain valuable insight into the future of the industry. From July 20 – 23, we welcomed nearly 500 visitors to our virtual booth, and over 200 joined our live, interactive webinars. If you missed us, we invite you to view our recorded sessions by REGISTERING FOR FREE below:   **ENTEGRIS TECHNOLOGY FORUM:** Acceleration of the Materials Era Join Entegris SVP and Chief Technology Officer, Jim O’Neill in this recorded webinar as he discusses: - Effects of COVID-19 on semiconductor growth - Increasing materials intensity in the era of materials advancement and putting it all together.This presentation is moderated by Wenge Yang, VP of market strategy, and includes live Q&A with Entegris technology experts.

In this recorded webinar, Dr. Rajiv Singh, VP, CMP slurries, addresses methods to achieve high polish rates and enhanced surface finish in silicon carbide, gallium nitride, sapphire, and carbon-based materials. [![REGISTER NOW!](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/4669942/ee0b8a0c-fa02-42a7-9a02-6aaccd360323.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/4669942/ee0b8a0c-fa02-42a7-9a02-6aaccd360323) --- **Effective Slurry Concentration Monitoring Using Refractive Index** Understanding the amount of solids in slurry is critical to determining an accurate Material Removal Rate (MRR) for CMP solutions. Index of Refraction (IoR) technology enables concentration monitoring of turbid and nonconductive materials. Join Tracy Gast, global applications engineer, in this recorded webinar as he introduces a new liquid concentration monitor based on IoR technology that offers high accuracy and repeatability with an optional automated in situ window cleaner to ensure measure stability over time.

These microenvironments are trusted to be free of contaminants and conductance, but like any other mechanical object they have parts that wear over time. Join Yossi Lax, global service manager and technology specialist, in this recorded webinar to learn the best methods for properly maintaining FOUP fleets to increase yield.
