Overview

For SL301, the STARlight HR (High Resolution) option is available as a factory or field upgrade. It uses the smallest pixel size available in any contamination inspection system to deliver the inspection sensitivity required for 0.25-m lithography. This feature will help increase the lithography process window for both mask shops and wafer fabs by capturing contaminants and particles, even semi-transparent defects, such as stains and transmission errors before they impact wafer production.
