QC-Velox

X-Ray Diffraction Imaging (XRDI) inspection system that detects crystalline defects in patterned and blanket wafers

  •   Detect slip, which may cause overlay issues, on 300mm wafers in minutes
  •   Identify cracks which will cause breakage BEFORE the breakage occurs
  •   Identify dislocations on wafers during manufacture without dislocation etching
  •   Patented, fully digital reflection topography system
  •   Full 300mm scanning, with rapid coarse reflection scans of either the full wafer area or selected regions
  •   Can mount part 450mm wafers
  •   Monitoring of defects down to single dislocations, a single atom or row wide (<1nm), at any doping and wafer backside treatment.
  •   Unique edge exclusion zone monitoring
  •   Capability for a wide range of crystalline substrates
  •   Efficient system with low power sources

Description

The QC-RT is the latest defect metrology system. It helps identify problems encountered during wafer production using the latest X-ray diffraction imaging (XRDI) technology. Applications include monitoring buried defects to prevent costly wafer breakage during ultra fast anneal. It can qualify and monitor process tools at any technology node, including 90nm and below, which reduces cycle times and facilitates fab expansion. This system provides the most comprehensive crystallographic defect inspection solution for analyzing wafer quality in incoming wafers and during metallization steps
