What it is

General reference — not yet source-verified

The Onto Innovation AXI 935 Macro Defect is a metrology and inspection tool for semiconductor manufacturing.

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

A macro defect inspection tool examines wafer surfaces for visible irregularities, contamination, and other large-scale defect conditions before those wafers move to later process steps.

Metrology and inspection systems in this class typically combine optical measurement and automated image review to locate defects and support process control.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

The AXI 935 Macro Defect sits in the inspection flow used to screen wafers before downstream processing proceeds.

Applications

General reference — not yet source-verified

The AXI 935 Macro Defect is used for semiconductor wafer defect inspection and metrology.

Frequently asked questions

How is this class different from dimensional metrology?General reference — not yet source-verified

Dimensional metrology measures intended feature geometry, while macro defect inspection looks for unwanted events such as particles, scratches, residue, missing material, stains, and pattern anomalies.

What kind of output does this class of tool provide?General reference — not yet source-verified

Such systems generally produce defect maps, event classifications, image data, and summary results that engineers use to monitor trends, isolate excursions, and decide whether additional review is needed.
