Rhosonics ultrasonic technology for measuring any chemical or solid in production processes.

We are proud, to announce the news of our collaboration with Rhosonics. A company, based in the Netherlands, in Putten, that has been developing sustainable ultrasonic measuring instruments for process optimization for over 30 years.

Rhosonics design, produce, and supply state-of-the-art ultrasonic sensors and analyzers for various industries, such as the semiconductor industry.

For the semiconductor industry they offer Chemical Concentration Meters. Rhosonics’ ultrasonic technology provides better oversight of the process by simultaneously monitoring multiple chemical concentrations in real-time. The real-time process data allows operators to achieve process optimization in a safe, reliable, sustainable, and cost- effective way. This is a great gain for our customers.

NDS most popular product is the Heat-Resistant Dicing Tape.

It is an UV curable type, and even if it is heated up 150 °C in your process for 1 hour, it can easily be peeled from the work after UV irradiation, and there is little generating of an adhesive residue.
The Heat-Resistant Tape “HUV-7000 Series” is available in different types and is suitable for all processes in a clean room.

Otto von Guericke University Magdeburg received a Table top SEM CUBE II from EMCrafts

S3 Alliance has sold and installed an EMCrafts CUBE II scanning electron microscope (SEM) at the Otto-von-Guericke-University  Magdeburg. Weighing only 65 kg, the CUBE II is a very compact tabletop SEM that can be used by the co-workers and students of Prof F. Scheffler’s Industrial Chemistry group, whenever they need a SEM. It is a highly advanced instrument with 5 axes of motion and a resolution of up to 5.0 nm. With optional detectors like EDS (compatible with Oxford, Bruker, EDAX, Thermo), even the chemical composition of various kinds of samples can be explored.
Included are: Auto Rotation, Auto Tilt, Chamber Camera and Navigation. Like this, staff and students can analyze their samples using CUBE II’s simple and intuitive user interface.

The fast imaging capabilities of the Cube II SEM allow for rapid collection of large amounts of data, which is particularly useful for studies requiring large numbers of samples. Dr A. Lieb from the Otto-von-Guericke-University Magdeburg is extraordinarily satisfied with the technical know-how and the commitment of S3 Alliance service technicians on site.

In summary, the Cube II SEM from EMcrafts is a powerful and versatile tool for exploring the micro and nano world. With its high resolution, fast imaging, chemical analysis capabilities, and ease of operation, it is a valuable device for professionals in many fields. It is absolutely forward-looking and exactly the right way for university teaching and research at very affordable costs.

Installation of an e3511 Wafer Ashing System at EPFL, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology

Last year, S3 Alliance installed an e3511 Wafer Ashing System from ESI at EPFL, Swiss Federal Institute of Technology. One of Europe’s most vibrant and cosmopolitan science and technology institutions.

The tool was installed inside the Center of MicroNanoTechnology (CMi), a complex of cleanrooms and processing equipment for the training and scientific experimentation devoted to the users of microtechnology.

Mr. Pernollet, process engineer at CMi, stated:
“S3 Alliance installed this tool as complementary to our regular barrel type ashers. Hardware of the e3511 offers us higher rate of resist removal and improved uniformity across wafers which is a real plus for descum processes. The quick and easy handling allows for fast training of our users and the tool proves to be versatile and robust which is a must-have characteristic for our users-based platform!”
