PHOTORESIST DEVELOPMENT ANALYSIS INSTRUMENT


LTJ RDA Series: RDA-800




The Resist Development Analyzer MODEL-800 is a cutting-edge 18-channel development speed measuring system capable of responding to high development speeds. The MODEL-800 developed through modification of the MODEL-790, which has a fixed monitor lens, so that the MODEL0-800?? lens moves in sync with the wafer, thus enabling data sampling to start immediately after a sample is immersed in the developer. This allows measurement of high development speeds, up to approx. 6,000 nm/s (Rmax), a feat extremely difficult to accomplish with conventional systems. The MODEL-800 can be used not only for analysis of development characteristics such as measurement of development speed and calculation of resist contrast curves, but also for quick and accurate determination of resist modeling parameters required by a lithography simulator.
