What it is

The Canon FPA 5510 iZ is a lithography stepper used in semiconductor manufacturing.[1]

The Canon FPA 5510 iZ is a Canon-made model with the designation FPA 5510 iZ.[1]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

A lithography stepper uses a projection optical system to transfer a patterned mask image onto a photosensitive wafer surface.

A stepper exposes the wafer field by field, using precise alignment between the mask pattern and the wafer before exposure.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

A lithography stepper sits early in the wafer fabrication flow, after wafer preparation and photoresist coating, and before resist development and pattern transfer steps.

A lithography stepper defines circuit or device features that later etch, implant, or deposition steps reproduce or modify.

Applications

General reference — not yet source-verified

A lithography stepper is used to pattern semiconductor wafers for integrated circuit fabrication.

A lithography stepper is also used for other precision microfabrication tasks that require repeated projection of mask-defined features onto a coated substrate.
