Silicon Run has been producing award winning educational films about semiconductor and computer manufacturing since 1986, with its two most recent films exploring the exciting fields of Nanotechnology and MEMS (microelectromechanical systems). Each film features live industrial footage and illustrates technical processes using vivid animations and graphics. All Silicon Run titles are available on DVD and by streaming. »read more
About Silicon Run Productions
Our Films
Silicon Run’s nine award winning educational films explore the fascinating process of semiconductor manufacturing from A to Z. Shot on site and illustrated with rich animations, Silicon Run’s films provide in-depth studies of such topics as: MEMS (microelectromechanical systems), Nanotechnology, Lithography, Implantation, Deposition, Etch, front end and back end semiconductor manufacturing (Silicon Run I and II) and Silicon Run LITE (an overview film useful as an intro).
NanotechnologyThe World Beyond Micro
The world of nano dimensions and a growing number of engineered nanomaterials.
Silicon Run IISemiconductor Mfg, Part 2
Fabricated wafer through testing, packaging, and computer manufacturing.
We showed SILICON RUN I first as an introduction to the subject – it gives good overview and rapid visual association with the terminology to be used. A copy is available to students at any time during the course, and a second viewing is required before the end.Dennis G. Smith

This film will be shown to our third term in digital. It nicely ties together the concepts in Silicon Run I with materials studied in the first two digital courses.Cal Hicks

Excellent films – we enjoyed them. They give a great live illustration of what students are trying to read in a book. I use them in our solid state courses They’re also used in a CIS program to give an appreciation of what’s really happening with electronics circuitry.James G. Smith
