Overview

The NanoSpec 6100 is a tabletop film analysis system that provides fast and low-cost measurement capabilities for thin film metrology. It uses non-contact spectroscopic reflectometry to measure sites as small as 10µm in diameter on production wafers and can measure wafer substrates in the size range of 75 to 200mm and photomasks from 5 to 9 inches square. The system can measure film thickness in the range of 200Å - 20µm with the visible light source and 25Å - 20µm with an optional UV light source. The upper thickness range can be extended to 70µm with the thick film option. The system also has a motorized, precision x-y sample stage with a resolution of better than 1µm and a high-resolution color graphics display that provides contour and 3D film thickness mapping.
