What it is

The Ultratech XLS 7800 is a DUV wafer stepper used for lithographic pattern transfer on semiconductor wafers. It is a step-and-repeat exposure tool in the lithography stage of fabrication.[1][2]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

A wafer stepper exposes a reticle image onto a wafer field, then advances the wafer to the next field and repeats the exposure. In this class of tool, the image is reduced optically during projection, and the exposure is used to define fine patterns in photoresist before later etch or deposition transfer steps.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

The tool sits in the front end of wafer patterning, after resist coating and prior to development and downstream pattern transfer. It is used where repeated exposure of many identical chip sites across a wafer is required.

Applications

The Ultratech XLS 7800 is used for semiconductor lithography on 200 mm silicon wafers.[3]
