Qcept Technologies is the world leader in Non-Visual Defect (NVD) inspection.

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.
