Lam Research

The semiconductor industry receives its equipment for wafer production and related services from the American company Lam Research Corporation. Its products are largely utilized in front-end wafer processing, which includes the procedures needed to generate the transistors, capacitors, and wiring that go into semiconductor devices (interconnects).

Additionally, the business produces machinery for the back-end wafer-level packaging (WLP) sector as well as for associated manufacturing markets, like those for microelectromechanical systems (MEMS). Dr. David K. Lam established Lam Research in 1980. Its main office is in Fremont, California, close to Silicon Valley. After Tesla, it was the Bay Area's second-largest manufacturer as of 2018.
