Product Description
This accessory can be used in reflectance or transmission
modes. The semiconductor industry has determined its
reflectance capability a comprehensive solution in
semiconductor wafer characterization; particularly the
determination of epitaxial layer thickness (EPI), and
measurements of Borophosphosilicate Glass (BPSG) and
carbon-oxygen. The device is also ideal for characterizing
non-semiconductor materials such as films and coatings on
reflective substrates.The latest reflectance design can
accomodate 12" diameter wafers with added expansion for
inserts to support 2 - 8" diameter wafers. Submit your
request if such capacity is required hence the product
presented to purchase represents an 8" wafer mount with
expansion for inserts to support 2 - 6" diameter wafers in
a demountable spring loaded, delrin support mechanism.
The accessory incorporates linear translation and rotation
motor drives, managed by a motion control unit with
integrated AutoPro programmable software. This offers
analysis of any sequence of points on the sample and
controls spectral data acquisition. Sophisticated test
sequences can be easily designed, implemented and stored as
method with full flexibility. To offer an understanding of
the software's accuracy, an instrument with an 8mm beam
diameter can measure up to 320 points on a 12" sample with
a 5mm setting for edge exclusion. The software interfaces
easily with Microsoft Windows based programs via DDE links
and seamlessly integrates with the spectrometer's software.
It's a complete solution entailing a hardware and software
package for automated, multi-position data collection and
processing.
Alternatively, the optical system as used for reflectance
is available in transmission mode with a standard 60
position, 13mm diameter multisample mount. For more
demanding applications, a 12" diameter, 114 position, 13mm
diameter multisample mount can be provided as an option. The
sampling plate can be configured for any combination of
sample number, type and geometry and can be used for a wide
range of samples including films, slides, pellets, windows
and large area samples. A transmission-only version is
available with 6" diameter capacity which accommodates a 32
position, 13mm diameter multisample mount. Offer request
