Fiber assemblies for semiconductor manufacturing
Semiconductor manufacturing, including yield monitoring and process control systems such as wafer defect inspection and wafer metrology solutions, demands precision fiber optic assemblies with medium-high or high customizability.
The Lightguide team is developing application-based solutions hand-in-hand with our customers. The solutions we’ve developed can be divided into three groups:
- Solutions for semiconductor manufacturing equipment
- Solutions for process diagnostics and control
- Solutions for wafer inspection equipment
Our deep understanding of silica/silica step-index multi-mode fiber manufacturing and custom-made fiber assembly production allows our customers to take a cost- and solution-effective approach to the challenges they face on a daily basis.
A high customization rate gives customers the chance to develop new technologies to support future projects. However, our customers also appreciate their existing technical capabilities, such as:
- fiber material and structure selection
- fiber assembly optimization (mechanical and optical)
- fiber bundle randomization and mapping
- different bundle end geometry (round, line, rectangular, D-shape, etc.)
- different fiber bundle end finishes (HFB, CFB, MFB)
- anti-reflective coating
We can also help with for semiconductor production and inspection solutions, because we carry out all critical-to-customer steps in-house, including:
- design and R&D
- prototyping
- fiber drawing
- precision mechanics
- assembling and mass production
