The 3 in 1 Solution for AMC Monitoring

When product performance or yield loss is discovered at your final test stage, finding portential sources of defects as soon as possible is crucial to maintaining profitability. In many cases, the defects are caused by airborne molecular contaiminants (AMC), which The International Technology Roadmap for Semiconductors (ITRS) now highlights as a key technical challenge in achieving and sustaining low defect rates on devices.

 Based on Tiger Optics’ new multi-spectral platform, the T-I Max X3 monitors for HF, NH3 and HCl Airborne Molecular Contaminants (AMCs) continuous and simultaneously in real-time in a more compact design.

BENEFITS

  • Sensitive, absolute measurement technique, using Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy (CRDS)
  • Dramatically improved speed of response
  •  Parts-per-trillion detection limits
  • Drift-free, with calibration traceable to the world’s leading reference labs
  • No consumables + no calibration gases = Low COO
  • Resistant to contamination by particles or VOCs
