Bruker Optics - Rhazer
Advanced Haze Removal System> – RAVE is once again pioneering another breakthrough in advanced equipment...
Haze contamination on photomasks has become a pervasive and costly problem throughout the Semiconductor Industry. Recent wet clean and environmental control techniques have helped to slow haze formation during wafer stepper exposures, but show no promise of a haze prevention solution.
The Rhazer® system does not prevent haze, but allows the wafer fab to “manage” it! The Rhazer® system is designed to reside in the wafer fab and provide a resident capability to reduce haze growth below printable levels from both sides of reticles in less than one working shift. The process is dry and does not require removal of the pellicle. Although haze is expected to reform, the Rhazer® process causes no damage to the mask absorber materials, no Transmission loss, no effect on critical CDs and no Overlay shift, meaning reticles can be cleaned as often as needed without leaving the control of the fab environment.
