The KLA 5100 Overlay Measurement System is a metrology and inspection tool for measuring overlay on 8-inch wafers. The KLA 5100 uses optical microscopes for measurement functions.[1]
The KLA 5100 uses optical microscopes for measurement functions.[1]
The KLA 5100 includes a 12k microscope and a 750 micron field-of-view microscope with a light source.[1]
The 50 micron field-of-view microscope on the KLA 5100 performs optical measurement, interferometer measurement, and autofocus.[1]
The KLA 5100 is used in the metrology and inspection portion of wafer fabrication.[1]
