What it is
The Olympus TH 3 is an inspection microscope.[1]
How it works
General reference — not yet source-verifiedAn inspection microscope operates by transmitting or reflecting light through an objective lens system to form a magnified image of the specimen.
Where it fits in the process flow
General reference — not yet source-verifiedInspection microscopes are typically positioned at various stages of semiconductor fabrication for in-line defect monitoring and process control.
The instruments are used after lithography, etching, deposition, and other process steps to verify pattern integrity and detect contamination.
