Physical background

Surface tension of photolithographic materials like resist and developer has a great potential for the photolithographic process itself. For instance, homogeneity of spin coatings, planarization, and adhesion depend directly on surface tension of the materials involved. The SURFTENS WH 300 contact angle meter serves for the measurement of contact angle and surface free energy (SFE) in semiconductor technology and provides the complete functionality, which is required in 300mm wafer fab´s. This makes the device unique worldwide.

Contact Angle Measuring Instrument SURFTENS HL

SURFTENS HL 200 has been specially designed for use in process control in the surface treatment of Si wafers. SURFTENS HL 200 meet the needs for a fast, highly accurate and comfortable measurement of the wettability of silicon wafers.... More Info Less Info







Surface tension of photolithographic materials like resist and developer has a great potential for the photolithographic process itself. For instance, homogeneity of spin coatings, planarization, and adhesion depend directly on surface tension of the materials involved. The same applies to the surface free energy (SFE) of coatings.

Surface free energy (SFE) of substrates and layers, used in semiconductor technology can be investigated by contact angle measurement. Measuring the contact angle allows you to quickly optimize new process steps as well as to better standardize known processes. Small changes in the surface property of wafers are seen as large, easily detected changes in the contact angle. A small investment of time to measure the contact angle, can give a large return by avoiding later production problems. To reduce defect density and feature sizes of resist structures (<1μm), a good adhesion of the resist is necessary. By the help of contact angle measurement, you can control the adhesion very easily.

The contact angle measuring system SURFTENS HL 200 has been specially designed for use in the semiconductor industry and research, especially for process control in the surface treatment of Si wafers. It is the ideal tool, to investigate contact angle and wettability of wafers. SURFTENS HL 200 meet the needs for a fast, highly accurate and comfortable measurement of the wettability of silicon wafers.
