Description
EBL: A Pioneering Maskless Technology for reaching up to sub 10nm resolution. AMO offers a wide range of readily available EBL processes on many different substrate types. Smallest feature size of 50nm on substrate sizes from 10x10mm2 up to 8” Wafer with etch depth up to 1000nm. Fabrication of high aspect ratio nanostructures using super critical resist drying. Single/Dense line resolution of ~10 nm/ ~25 nm.
Photolithography:
Mask Aligner with smallest feature size of 2 µm on Wafers up to 8”.
I-Line Stepper with smallest feature size of 500nm on 6” Wafer only.
Interference Lithography (IL): For precision stitching free gratings with minimum features size of 50nm. Fixed Angle and Variable Angle IL on Silicon and Quartz substrates. Wafer size up to 6” and for selected configurations on 8”.
