Used NIKON i8 #9068878 for sale

NIKON i8 is a precision wafer stepper precision lithography imaging equipment developed by NIKON Corporation. It is the latest system in the i-line series of steppers. It supports the integration of several technologies and features to provide an ideal tool for advanced process development. The stepper features a fully automated platform that offers continuous trial-and-improvement learning. It incorporates several advanced technologies such as NEXIV, a proprietary deep-submicron alignment technology, to ensure high print accuracy. NIKON proprietary ACCUPHASE processing technology and multi-dimensional nozzle control technology contribute to outstanding lithography performance. The STEMs in the unit use high resolution aerodynamically driven anti-reflective optics to deliver world-class imaging performance. The machine features an advanced frame imaging tool that enables multi-field overlapping exposure to reduce pattern oscillation. The advanced 1x reticle inspection function ensures that sample spots are consistent with the pattern defined on the original wafer. The advanced optical asset also offers highly accurate Two-Dimensional Registration Model (iTDR) as well as a high-resolution and low distortion optical equipment for pellicle appearance control. Furthermore, the system is equipped with a range of powerful software tools such as Predictive Pattern Measurement Tool, Data Retrieval Tool and Process Audit Tool. The Pattern Measurement Tool enables users to capture batch data, view overlays and drift trends, and analyze wafer distortion. Data Retrieval Tool allows users to collect wafer characteristic data from charts created during processing. The Process Audit Tool enables users to monitor data from multiple systems and processes to ensure quality assurance. The powerful controller and software of the unit maximize efficiency and enable equipment operation that is up to three times faster than other steppers. The machine also offers co-aligners for fast movement and placement for wafer printing. In addition, the tool is compatible with most laser levels for metrology applications and with back-end processes for a wide range of applications. NIKON I 8 is a leading-edge technology asset for advanced lithography applications. It offers robust hardware and powerful software tools that provide superior imaging performance and fast turnaround times. The model is the perfect tool for economical and efficient lithography processes.
