Overview


The LX series is Lasertec's multi-wavelength wafer inspection system. Using light of several wavelengths, it quickly inspects film thickness, etch variation and CD across the whole wafer.

Fast full-wafer imaging makes it suited to monitoring volume production processes. Proprietary high-brightness, low-noise multi-wavelength optics raise sensitivity, and it has its own analysis algorithms for different targets such as film thickness, etch amount and CD. A high-resolution model and a high-throughput model are available depending on the application.

It is used to monitor resist thickness and CD variation in lithography, for film thickness control and tool QC in deposition, and to monitor depth variation in etching.
