Contamination control for chemicals & ultrapure water

20 nm Yield Protection

At 20 nm, contamination doesn’t just impact performance—it determines yield.

Particles at this scale are often undetectable with traditional monitoring methods, yet they can silently degrade process integrity long before defects are visible.

To operate with confidence, you need more than compliance.
You need complete visibility—and control—across your entire process.

Hidden particles. Real yield loss.

Why 20 nm Contamination Control Matters

At advanced nodes, contamination risk is no longer isolated—it spans every stage of your process:

  • Ultrapure water (UPW)
    Critical to wafer cleaning, yet vulnerable to sub-visible particle contamination
  • Process chemicals
    Highly filtered—but still capable of introducing yield-limiting particles
  • Distribution systems and point-of-use
    Where contamination can enter undetected

At 20 nm, even trace particles can disrupt device performance and compromise yield.

20 nm Particle Detection

Conventional particle counters lack the sensitivity required for advanced semiconductor processes.

With 20 nm particle sensitivity, PMS solutions allow you to:

  • Detect contamination earlier—before yield is affected
  • Identify yield-limiting particles that other systems cannot measure
  • Improve process control with more accurate data

These capabilities enable proactive contamination control instead of reactive troubleshooting
