Thickness and TTV of Semiconducting Wafers
Thickness and TTV of Semiconducting Wafers Semiconductor Thickness And TTV Of Semiconducting Wafers Thickness Description Introduction:  Silicon wafers are ordinarily highly conductive and easy to measure with standard capacitive displacement sensors (See MTI’s Proforma 300i). Measuring the thickness of GaAs wafers that have high bulk resistivity (>10k Ohm/cm) is a little more difficult because the wafers act as non-conductive insulators in a capacitive sensors measuring field. Fortunately, MTI has a solution to this problem. Solution:  It’s possible to measure the thickness and TTV of high resistivity semiconducting wafers (like GaAs) [...]
High-Speed Signal Recording Systems
High-Speed Signal Recording Systems PC Instrumentation Systems for High-Speed Data Acquisition GaGe has a long history of providing high-speed, real-time signal acquisition, processing, and recording systems on PC-based platforms. This expertise saves customers time and eliminates uncertainties and risks with self-integrated systems. The advantage of the open PC-based system platform is that it allows the capability to mix and match a variety of instruments tailored for a specific application requirement with very high-speed data transfer rates via the PCIe interface for real-time signal-based solutions. Unlike traditional boxed-based test equipment, whose functionality is set [...]
Lithography Optics Position Focus
Lithography Optics Position Focus Semiconductor Lithography Optics Position Focus Positioning Description One specific area where capacitance systems excel is high resolution focusing of complex lens systems such as those found in atomic force microscopes, vision inspection machines and photolithography tools. In a multi-million dollar photolithography tool, high accuracy, nanometer resolution and maximum thermal stability are absolutely critical to maintain proper focus and obtain integrated circuit line widths as small as 45 nanometers. Additionally, most systems demand low power consumption and maximum heat dissipation to eliminate any adverse affects from temperature [...]

Older PBS Support Policy
Valued PBS customers and partners: MTI Instruments prides itself on providing consistent, quality experiences for our customers. We recognize the importance of having products you can rely on to perform required functions consistently and accurately. As with any aging system, components become obsolete, parts become subject to wear and tear, software becomes vulnerable to cybersecurity risks, and older operating systems are incompatible with current operating environments. To that end, starting on August 1st, 2021, we will no longer be able to offer calibration and repair services on PBS-4100 and PBS-4100R built on/before 2012. If you have one of these [...]
Camera Shield Measurement
Camera Shield Measurement Consumer Electronics Camera shield measurement Surface Equipment Setup Equipment Used DTS-25-04 laser head Rotary Stage PC with Digital Microtrak Basic Support software Setup: Power is automatic mode. Filter is 100Hz Sample rate is 1000 samples sec The head was operated in diffuse mode (not specular/tilted) Validation of Setup The setup should be validated by performing a total runout scan on the rotary stage with no target present. The stage should be cleaned with Isopropyl alcohol and allowed to dry prior to the scan. This reduces any dust [...]
Tire Tread Measurement with 2D Laser
Tire Tread Measurement with 2D Laser Automotive Tire Tread Measurement with 2D Laser Depth Why Accurate Tire Tread Measurement Matters To maximize safety and tire longevity, modern tire manufacturers are adopting 100% tire inspection systems that include tread depth measurement, defect detection, and pattern recognition. Inadequate tire tread depth can lead to reduced traction, poor braking, and potential tire failure. Surface anomalies like blistering, bubbles, or belt overlap may cause runout, road noise, or even catastrophic failure. With consumer expectations rising and regulatory standards tightening, tire OEMs and testing labs need precise, [...]
