We are please to announce that this year we are showing off our flagship photoluminescence mapping system YWafer RD8 at the SEMICON EUROPA exhibition in Munich. Booth C1 800, see you there!

Comme visit us in Belgium at the 14th Compound Semiconductor International Conference!
Since 2006 this model, which covers up to 100x100 mm area measurement for PL, reflectivity, transmission and even curvature measurement has always been available in desktop YWAFER-GS4 (54x54 cm footprint) or full (desk included to support external laser sources) YWAFER-GS4-DESK formats. Now we are proud to be able to offer a compromise between the compact desktop version and the all-included desk version: YWAFER-GS4-ELBASE, which keeps the same extremely compact footprint of the desktop version, but in a stand-alone design wich contains all the electronics and the control PC.
I was a pleasure to give a talk and discuss our research and development here at YSystems with so many experts in the field. For those who could not attend, here is the entirepresentation.

See the pesentation by Dr. Lacroix from our booth at the CS Live II conference in November 2020, entitled "Beyond the PL Mapper".

One system of our latest wafer mapping product lines, YWafer-RD8, was recently delivered to Toyota Central R&D Labs., Inc. (TCRDL) 

Featuring excitation control (for both spot size and attenuation) as well as extremely sensitive detection using both photo-diode and cooled CCD spectroscopy, such a system allows for weak defect band emission measurement over a range of intensities never achieved before.

According to scientists at TCRDL, "We are now able to measure and map the defect emission intensity of our wafers with high sensitivity, over more than 5 orders of magnitude, and moreover, wafer mapping with varying intensities of excitation can be achieved in a fully-automated fashion by using the RD8".

By comparing band-edge emission and defect emission over a large range of excitation conditions it is possible to quantify the quality of the epitaxy, which is critical for the reliability of high power electronic SiC and GaN based device structures.

The RD8 line was designed to do everything that our GS and YB product lines can and more, faster and with a maximum measurement area of 200 x 200mm or up to 8 inch wafers.

 YWafer Mapper RD8 Products

YWafer2019 brings new products and featues to our already versatile wafer mapping product line YWafer Mapper.

YWAFER-GS3 has now been discontinued as 2 to 3 inch wafer mapping is supported by both our GS4 and RD8 models.  We will consider supplying GS3's only upon special requests or volume orders.  YWAFER-YB products have also merged with the GS and RD series as special configurations of those models.

The current models, separated by mapping area capacity and loading methods is now as follows:

  GS4 RD8 -WL26 -WL48
up to 4 inch mapping (100x100 mm) 
up to 8 inch mapping (200x200 mm)   
2 to 6 inch robotic wafer loading      
4 to 8 inch robotic wafer loading      
over 8 inch mapping or loading Available as special order

 For more detailed information on the various capabilities and configurations that will best suite your needs, please contact us.

 

YGM-CRV-1D In Situ Wafer Curvature Monitoring Head

A customized version of YGrowthMonitor (YGM-CRV) for extreme wafer curvature was delivered to a corporation in Japan.  Our in situ monitoring products continue to adapt to new needs, in order to provide solutions to an ever growing variety of temperature, stress and reproducibility issues in commercial crystal growth.

YSystems was awarded patent number I 567377 (APPARATUS AND METHOD FOR MEASURING A LUMINISCENT DECAY) by the Taiwan Patent office. 

Fully automatic wafer mapping system (YWafer GS4-WL) ships to an LED maker in Japan.

On June 1st, RobotShop Japan opened its online store of robotic products.  YSystems and RobotShop Inc. (Canada) joined forces to expand the world leading distributor to include Japan as a logistic center!

A new production wafer mapping system (YWafer Mapper GS4-WL) for LED fabrication now in operation in Shanghai, China.  The system uses all the latest features including high-speed simultaneous mapping of the photoluminescence, epitaxial thickness and surface profile (curvature).

 

A 200mm measurement area phosphor wafer mapping system, one configuration of our YWafer RD8 lines, has been shipped to the Toshiba Corporate Research & Development Center.  

In order to obtain and map characteristics of these materials, our phosphorencence mapping systems (such as our smaller YB3 and YB4) implement a configuration such as used in typical phosphor-based light sources where blue light is partly transmitted from below the wafer, and yellow light is emitted from the absorbed portion.  (Click here for more information on the measurement method)

The standard configuration of these systems includes CIE parameterization of the total light emitted at several angles, as well as wafer thickness mapping, and features state of the art measurement reproducibility.  Optional interchangeable excitation light sources are also available.  Custom wafer adapaters, or other customization can typically be implemented without compromizing the core features of the RD8.

Please contact us for more details about this product.

 

Latest high performance GS4 for blue LEDs to be installed at a new LED factory in China.  This latest model features simultaneous measurements of eptitaxial thickness, photoluminescence and wafer curvature, a performance to this date only available by YSystems.

One of our latest models in the YWafer GS4 family of wafer mappers, with a full range of enhanced functions for mapping of photoluminescence, was delivered to Sharp Corporation.

Based on sophisticated optical metrology, the GS4 is more than ever customizable, providing the user with the optimal tool for measuring and mapping GaN-based wafer and more. As its predecessors,  the latest version of GS4 is designed to realize rapid, accurate, and highly reproducible measurement across a wide wavelength range and material systems. The GS4 can handle wafer sizes up to 100 x 100mm, and its built-in photoluminescence referencing technology enables the highest possible short and long term measurement stability and reproducibility.

Some possible extensions of the GS4 sysytem include up to 3 laser excitation sources, transmission and/or reflection sources and surface profiling for the measurement of epitaxial thickness, wafer curvature.  For more information our mapping products, please follow this link!
