What it is

The ASML PAS 5500 1100 Wafer is a wafer stepper for lithography.[2]

The ASML PAS 5500 1100 Wafer is part of the ASML PAS 5500 family.[2]

How it works

The ASML PAS 5500 1100 Wafer uses a Cymer NanoLith 7000 Laser.[1][2]

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

A wafer stepper sits in the lithography segment of semiconductor fabrication and follows resist preparation and coating steps before exposure.

A wafer stepper is followed by post-exposure processing such as development and then by downstream pattern-transfer steps.

Applications

A wafer stepper is used for wafer lithography in semiconductor manufacturing.[2]

The ASML PAS 5500 1100 Wafer is specified for 8 inch wafers.[1]
