The Fastmicro Particle Defect Inspection System has been developed to measure surface particle contamination levels directly on a product’s surfaces in any industry down to 200 nm Lower Detection Limit (LDL) at very fast throughput speeds. The primary applications are in Semiconductor (pellicles, reticles, wafers) and the display market. The scanning area is expandable to very large surfaces, like LCD substrates due to its modular and scalable design.
The scanner module is also available as a white label OEM solution for system integrators.
