Optical Measurement System uses image analysis algorithms.
September 12, 2006 -
Based on sound metrology principles, Innova provides point-to-point and field-of-view non-contact measurements of semiconductor, optoelectronic, and MEMS devices. It delivers FOV measurement down to 0.5 µm with measurement accuracy of 0.010 µm. Providing 200 x 200 mm XY stage travel, system has granite structural components and vibration isolation support stand for stability. Additional features include autofocus, auto illumination, and automatic wafer handler.

Innova Measurement System Is Ready For Nanotechnology
San Jose, CA USA - June 2006 - Micro-Metric, an industry leader in ultra high-precision dimensional metrology, announces the Innova optical measurement system for highest resolution and accuracy industrial metrology applications. Innova delivers exceptionally accurate point-to-point (PTP) and field-of-view (FOV) non-contact measurements of semiconductor, optoelectronic, and MEMS devices. Based on sound metrology principles and using powerful image analysis algorithms, Innova provides FOV measurement down to 0.5 µm with measurement accuracy of 0.010 µm (10 nm).
Micro-Metric will display this versatile system September 6-13, 2006, in Booth D-4618 at the International Manufacturing Technology Show (IMTS) in Chicago, IL.
Innova features 200 mm x 200 mm of high-precision XY stage travel. To ensure optimum stability, it has granite structural components and a vibration isolation support stand. Suitable for manual single measurements, it can also be programmed for fully automated sequences of measurements. Sub-pixel interpolations of intensity transitions allow sub-micron linewidth measurements.
The Innova system offers several key features for superior nanoscale measurement:
Autofocus precisely positions the microscope at the best focus point by mathematically analyzing edge sharpness through a series of focus positions.
Auto illumination automatically adjusts light intensity for best signal-to-noise ratio, providing maximum measurement repeatability.
Automatic wafer handler with prealigner (optional) allows wafers to be loaded from and returned to any slot in either of two cassettes. The prealigner can align to flats of all sizes, or notches. The system automatically deletes alignment marks, and performs measurements without operator assistance.
