The Nikon S 308 F (also known as NSR-S308F) is a deep ultraviolet (ArF) lithography scanner for 200 mm and 300 mm wafers. The Nikon S 308 F achieves a resolution below 65 nm using a 0.92 numerical aperture lens and 193 nm wavelength. The Nikon S 308 F provides a throughput over 145 wafers per hour on 300 mm wafers and over 165 wph on 200 mm.[1]
