What it is

The Onto Innovation Nanospec 9100 is an oxide film thickness measurement system.[2]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

An oxide film thickness measurement system measures film thickness by metrology methods used to characterize thin layers on semiconductor wafers.

A system of this class is used as an inspection and metrology tool that evaluates wafer surface films rather than altering the wafer.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

An oxide film thickness measurement system is used in fab metrology and inspection to check film properties during process control.
