Metrology and inspection tools in semiconductor manufacturing measure process results and check wafer condition by comparing physical features against expected targets.
A tool in this class is used to detect variation, confirm process quality, and support process control before wafers move to later fabrication steps.
A metrology and inspection tool sits in the process flow between fabrication steps that create wafer features and later steps that depend on those features being within specification.
A tool in this class supports feedback to upstream process steps and helps screen wafers before additional patterning, deposition, or integration steps continue.
Metrology and inspection tools are used in semiconductor production to evaluate wafers, monitor process stability, and identify defects or variation.
A tool in this class is used across process development, production monitoring, and quality control for wafer-based manufacturing.
