What it is

The Veeco-Wyko-NT9800 is a metrology and inspection tool.[2][1]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

The NT9800 uses optical metrology methods to measure surface geometry by analyzing reflected light from the sample surface.

The NT9800 is used as a noncontact inspection instrument for characterizing surfaces and patterned structures after fabrication steps.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

The NT9800 sits in the metrology part of a fabrication flow.

The NT9800 is used after process steps that change surface shape, film thickness, or pattern fidelity, so that the resulting features can be checked before later processing or final release.

Applications

General reference — not yet source-verified

The NT9800 is used for surface inspection and dimensional characterization in semiconductor and microfabrication workflows.

The NT9800 is suited to checking films, patterned layers, and other surfaces where noncontact optical measurement is preferred.
