Optical litography + 3D laser confocal microscope

Mask alignment system EVG 610

The EVG®610 is a compact and multi-purpose R&D system that can handle small substrate pieces and wafers up to 75 mm. The EVG610 supports a variety of standard lithography processes, such as vacuum-, hard-, soft-, and proximity exposure modes, with the option of back-side alignment. Moreover the system offers additional capabilities including soft UV nanoimprint lithography (NIL). Exposure optics includes an UV-LED light source with low energy consumption and long lifetime.

3D Laser Scanning Microscope VK-X3000 Series

The confocal microscope is capable of laser-based detection of light intensity and height. It is equipped with CMOS camera for obtaining color information. Using MultiFile Analyzer SW the system is capable of quantitative feature analysis, line & surface roughness measurement. For tribology and wear studies the material loss can be quantified easily with the volume measurement function. Larger area observation via image stitching capability.
