History


KLA-Tencor was formed in 1997 through the merger of KLA Instruments and Tencor Instruments, two companies in the semiconductor equipment and yield management systems industry. KLA Instruments was founded in 1975 by Ken Levy and Bob Anderson, and focused on defect inspection solutions. Karel Urbanek established Tencor Instruments in 1977 with an emphasis on metrology solutions, later adding John Schwabacher as cofounder.[4]


Since the merger, which was valued at $1.3 billion, KLA-Tencor, now KLA has acquired 23 additional companies:[5]


  • 1998: • Amray Inc.; • Nanopro GmbH; • Quantox product line from Keithley Instruments, Inc.; • VARS; • The Ultrapointe subsidiary of Uniphase Corporation

  • 1999: • ACME Systems Inc.

  • 2000: • Fab Solutions, from ObjectSpace Inc.; • FINLE Technologies, Inc.

  • 2001: • Phase Metrics, Inc.

  • 2004: • Candela Instruments, Inc. • Wafer Inspection Systems business of Inspex, Inc.

  • 2006: • ADE Corporation

  • 2007: • OnWafer Technologies; • SensArray Corporation; • Therma-Wave Corporation

  • 2008: • ICOS Vision Systems Corporation NV; • Microelectronic Inspection Equipment (MIE) business unit of Vistec Semiconductor Systems, Inc.

  • 2010: • Ambios Technology, Inc.

  • 2014: • Luminescent Technologies, Inc.

  • 2017: • Zeta Technologies Co. Ltd

  • 2018: • Nano Indenter product line from Keysight Technologies; • Nanomechanics Inc.; • MicroVision

In March 2018, KLA announced plans to buy Orbotech for $3.4B.[6] With this acquisition, KLA plans to significantly diversify its revenue base and add $2.5 billion of addressable market opportunity in the high-growth printed circuit board ("PCB"), flat panel display ("FPD"), packaging, and semiconductor manufacturing areas. This deal is currently pending regulatory approval.


On January 10, 2019, KLA-Tencor announced that they will be changing their name to KLA Corporation, and that they will adopt the tagline "Keep Looking Ahead". The name change will take full effect in July, 2019.[7]



Facilities


KLA's global operations include manufacturing, support and R&D facilities throughout Europe, the United States, Japan and Asia/Pacific.



KLA Foundation


KLA Foundation (originally KLA-Tencor Foundation) is the company's philanthropic arm, and was founded in 2000.[8] KLA Foundation supports and benefits the global communities in which KLA employees live and work.

In R, how to develop a multiplot heatmap.2 figure showing key labels successfully

Subplot titles are also desirable but again the labels are getting chopped. Here's my reproducible code: library(gridExtra) library(grid) library(gridGraphics) library(gplots) Col = colorRampPalette(c("red","orange","yellow", "white")) grab_grob <- function() grid.echo() grid.grab() par(cex.main=0.1, mar = c(1,1,1,1) ) #data<-read.table("heatmap.input.matrix.data.txt") lmat = rbind(c(2,3),c(4,1),c(4,1)) lwid = c(2.5,4) lhei = c(0.5,4,3) labRowvec <- c(rep(NULL, dim(matrix(runif(1000, 1,10),ncol=50))[1])) labColvec <- c(rep(NULL, dim(matrix(runif(1000, 1,10),ncol=50))[2])) gl <- lapply(1:12, function(i) heatmap.2(matrix(runif(1000, 1,10),ncol=50), dendrogram = "none",offsetRow=-0.5, offsetCol=-1,srtCol=0, density="density", lmat =lmat,lhei = l
