Description

The NXQ4006 Mask Aligner combines innovative design with precision alignment and exposure features. The versatility of the NXQ4006 makes it an ideal tool for basic photolithography and for R&D Work on small pieces and Odd Sized Substrates

It allows Soft/Hard pressure contact and Vacuum contact printing. The system can also print in Manual Proximity mode after leveling between the wafer and mask. It can process partial and whole substrates up to 150 mm (6”). Ideal fo manufacturing and R&D activities, for a wide range of technologies.

With two VIS-light objectives for top-view observations and two IR-light objectives for bottom-view / though-the-wafer observation, the tool allows multiple lithographies to be carried out with proper alignement on the sample, both on the top side and on the bottom side of the wafer (i.e. for MEMS applications)
