What it is

The Malvern Panalytical Omega Theta XRD is an X-ray diffraction system. The Omega Theta XRD is categorized within metrology and inspection equipment.[2][3]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

X-ray diffraction systems direct X-rays toward a sample and detect diffracted intensity as the geometry between source, sample, and detector is varied. X-ray diffraction systems use the resulting diffraction pattern to infer structural information about the material under test. X-ray diffraction systems are commonly arranged so that the sample and measurement axes can be moved with controlled angular positioning during a scan.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

X-ray diffraction systems are offline or at-line metrology tools used to evaluate material structure after deposition, growth, annealing, or other structure-forming steps. X-ray diffraction systems support process development, process monitoring, and failure analysis by checking whether a film or substrate has the intended crystalline condition before later fabrication or packaging work proceeds.

Applications

The Malvern Panalytical Omega / Theta XRD is configured for 6 inch wafers. The Malvern Panalytical Omega / Theta XRD uses 200-240 Vac power and 50/60 Hz electrical service.[1][2]
