What Trends Will Shape the Semiconductor Wafer Inspection Equipment Market Through 2029 and Beyond?
Leading enterprises in the semiconductor wafer inspection equipment market are focusing on creating highly sophisticated tools, one such example being non-patterned wafer surface inspection systems. These are pivotal in pinpointing and analyzing any surface defects or anomalies at the initial phase of production. A non-patterned wafer surface inspection tool is a specialized instrument formulated to identify and scrutinize surface defects on semiconductor wafers without any pre-established patterns or circuits. One such breakthrough was made by Hitachi High-Tech Corporation, a semiconductor wafer inspection machinery firm based in Japan; they unveiled the LS9300AD in March 2024. This cutting-edge system is meant for inspection of both the front and rear sides of non-patterned wafer surfaces for particle and defect detection. It merges the traditional dark-field laser scattering detection with a novel Differential Interference Contrast (DIC) inspection feature, helping with the detection of irregular, shallow, and low-aspect microscopic defects. By using the wafer edge grip technique and a rotating platform, the LS9300AD facilitates thorough inspection of both wafer sides. This trailblazing system created by Hitachi High-Tech offers major cost reductions in inspections and strengthens productivity for semiconductor wafer and device producers by giving high-sensitivity and high-throughput detection of microscopic defects.
