As the semiconductor manufacturing industry drives technological advancement, the critical particle size continues becoming smaller. It requires supporting solutions for contamination monitoring that keep up with these advances. Wafers pass through many process tools during manufacturing rendering conventional metrology techniques too slow to react to real time events, thus requiring real-time monitoring at the wafer’s surface (where it matters).
With improved technology, particle events down to 10 nm can be quickly and precisely detected improving wafer handling and development techniques. Complete tool coverage can now be achieved using a single particle counter in combination with a multipoint manifold accessory specifically designed for nanoparticle transport. This technology can also be adapted to validate and control cleanliness of bulk gases being supplied in the industry.
