KLA-Tencor Corporation announced that it has completed its acquisition of the Microelectronic Inspection Equipment (MIE) business unit of Vistec Semiconductor Systems. 
Vistec Semiconductor Systems - MIE provides advanced semiconductor mask and wafer manufacturing systems. 

On February of 2006, Leica Microsystems' Semiconductor Equipment Division has a new name: Vistec Semiconductor Systems. The name change is a result Golden Gate Capital takeover of Leica's semiconductor business.

The LMS IPRO3 is a high-performance pattern placement and CD metrology system designed for use with masks and wafers of up to 300mm in size. Its flexible feature edge detection, which uses image analysis, allows engineers to solve a variety of day-to-day problems, such as process control on non-orthogonal features. Additionally, the system’s flexible and comprehensive data analysis software provides valuable information on pattern generator, process quality, and product quality. This makes the LMS IPRO3 an essential tool for ensuring the highest levels of precision and accuracy in the manufacturing process.

LMS IPRO3

The LDS 3000 allows fully automatic defect monitoring in all process steps. All types of yield limiting visual defects on single layer or multi-layer patterned wafers will be detected, including thin film-, photo-, -etch- and the cleaning-process will be detected. Beside the micro the LDS 3000 can be equipped optionally also with fully automatic macro inspection.

LDS3000

The new generation LDS3300 from Vistec Semiconductor Systems (previously Leica Microsystems Semiconductor GmbH) enables fully automated inspection of the 300mm wafer surface.
The system's parallel processing capability allows simultaneous wafer inspection of the front / backside and the edge/bevel – at throughputs of up to 130 wafers per hour. A single rotation of the wafer is sufficient for wafer edge inspection to deliver the detection results and defect images. The image-based technology convinces with 1µm sensitivity and allows for optional high resolution microscopic review of defects.

Vistec’s LMS IPRO4 is a fully automated mask metrology system designed to support mask metrology requirements of the 45nm node. It can measure registration and critical dimensions in transmitted or reflected light at i-line (365nm). The system is known for its measurement performance, reliability, user-friendly interface, and comprehensive data evaluation software. It can also be equipped with an optional 300mm wafer chuck to qualify pattern placement of wafer lithography tools. Key features include I-line UV-illumination, edge detection, registration long-term repeatability, full coverage of 230mm reticles and 300mm wafers, through pellicle measurement capability, mask rotation capability, and enhanced minienvironment stability.

LMS IPRO4

The next-generation system, the LMS IPRO5, is designed to support the stringent precision and repeatability requirements for pattern placement metrology of reticles supporting advanced lithography techniques and 3Xnm to 2Xnm node devices.

 The LMS IPRO6 system  is used by mask shops for comprehensive characterization of reticle pattern placement error, which is a direct contributor to wafer-level pattern overlay error. The LMS IPRO6 utilizes model-based metrology to accurately measure reticle registration for on-device pattern features and standard registration marks, producing higher sampling for better determination of mask quality.

The Leica INS 3000 is the new defect review and inspection station. The all stainless-steel system features a fully automatic integrated microscope, including UV and Confocal, and universal wafer handler. The design priorities of the INS 3000 are ergonomy, cleanliness, automation and user-friendliness.The characteristics of the system are 1 to 3 cassette front loading, including SMIF, and a newly developed Windows™ NT based graphical user interface.

INS3000

The INS3300 automated optical defect review and defect classification system incorporates UV and DUV optics for the highest resolution available on any optical review microscope. Fully automated and production-ready, the INS3300 defect classification system is user-friendly, ergonomic and reliable.
