Our ChemetriQ® inspection systems enable fabs to improve yield by detecting Non-Visual Defects (NVD), sub-monolayer metallic and organic contamination, and other yield-killing surface non-uniformities that cannot be seen by optical tools.

Whether you’re in a high-volume, advanced fab, in pilot production, development or a research lab, there's a ChemetriQ tool that will enable you to improve yield and increase fab profitability.
