The Canon FPA 5500 iZa is a lithography scanner/stepper. The Canon FPA 5500 iZa is an i-line stepper lithography system. The Canon FPA 5500 iZa supports 300 mm wafers.[1][2][3]
What it is
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedA lithography scanner exposes a wafer through a reticle pattern and transfers that pattern onto photoresist.
An i-line system uses deep ultraviolet illumination near the i-line mercury wavelength for pattern exposure.
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedThe Canon FPA 5500 iZa belongs in the front-end lithography module of a semiconductor fab.
The Canon FPA 5500 iZa is used after resist coating and prior to development and later etch or implantation pattern transfer steps.
