Reticle and Mask Particle Inspection System

Reticle and Mask Particle Detection System

PR-PD2

Outline
Introducing Horiba's PR-PD2, 0.35 micron reticle and mask inspection system for foreign particle detection. This system fulfills the needs of constantly diversifying lithographic and masking processes which demand ways of detecting the minutest of foreign particles. With the ability to inspect reticles and masks that are covered with a pellicle, you have the option of inspecting foreign particles on pattern, glass or pellicle surfaces. What's more, detection errors are minimized with a pattern discrimination which has been enhanced to 1.0 µm/1.0 µm.

Main Features
0.35 µm detection sensitivity, 93% detection rate.

Easy operation with flexible inspection menu.

Automatic loading of up to 10 reticles directly from reticle cases in a multi-stage sorter.

It is possible to obtain direct observations from both the reticle and mask surfaces (glass surface and pattern surface.)

Particles mapped on MS Windows NT, convenient data management for reporting.

Reduce inspection errors using the New Signal Process Method.
