Used ASML AT 1250D #9241299 for sale

ASML AT 1250D wafer stepper is a system designed for exposing photoresists on silicon wafers during the photolithography process in the fabrication of semiconductor devices. It uses high-precision, laser-interferometer controlled scanners along with a comprehensive array of tools and settings to enable engineers and technicians to accurately and repeatably fabricate advanced semiconductor devices. The platform utilizes a range of component subsystems to achieve this level of performance and sophistication. To enable its automated operation, the wafer stepper utilizes up to 8 motorized axes of motion, including X, Y, Theta, Z, Accel and Focus, which are managed and integrated to ensure highly accurate and repeatable results. The optical subsystem of the wafer stepper employs an integrated lenses (up to 8) and a moveable mirror mounted to a spherical gantry, as well as an array of laser diodes and photo-diodes. The combination of these components and the stepper's interferometer-controlled scanners enable engineers to accurately and consistently pattern photoresistings on semiconductor wafers. In addition to the automated motion and optical subsystems, the platform also includes sophisticated Human Machine Interface (HMI) software which serves as an operator console that allows engineers and technicians to intuitively and efficiently interact with the device. The HMI includes a control panel with a number of buttons, several text-based displays, shortcut keys, and pre-programmed settings for different recipes and procedures. It also facilitates the integration of the wafer stepper with a range of peripherals, such as robot arms for precision handling of wafers, or vision systems for more sophisticated process work. Lastly, the system also includes a number of environmental sensors that allow the device to monitor and regulate its internal temperature, pressure levels, and flow rates as these parameters can vary significantly depending on the nature and complexity of the photolithography process. All these features combined help ASML AT-1250D wafer stepper deliver exceptional performance in the production of integrated circuits and other micro-electronic components.
