COMPANY OVERVIEW
“AFTER EVERY PROCESS STEP A WAFER HAS A SPECIFIC MASS FINGERPRINT – UNDERSTANDING THAT MASS FINGERPRINT BRINGS UNPRECEDENTED PROCESS CONTROL TO SEMICONDUCTOR MANUFACTURING ON PRODUCT WAFERS. THIS IS THE METRYX VALUE PROPOSITION.”
Dr Adrian Kiermasz, President & CEO
Based in Bristol, England, Metryx is a semiconductor equipment supplier whose technology offers unique nanotechnology mass measurement techniques that provides atomic layer accuracy for characterisation of individual materials and processes, or process control of the manufacturing sequence.
The company’s technology enables any process change within microelectronic device manufacturing to be determined with unprecedented accuracy based on the mass and density of the materials used in production. In simple terms, by measuring every processed wafer mass change, variations can be detected on actual product wafers and problems in the process can be identified very early on – saving valuable time and money.
