Analytical Solutions for the Semiconductor Industry
ANALYTICAL SOLUTIONS FOR Semiconductor Fabrication
Semiconductors are considered the brains of modern electronics. Our TIGER OPTICS™ Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy (CRDS) gas analyzers seamlessly detect parts-per-billion (ppb) and parts-per-trillion (ppt) levels and delivers bulk gas monitoring for trace H2, H2O, O2, CH4, CO, CO2, Kr, NH3, and Xe, UHP ammonia for HB LED production, tool monitoring for trace H2O and HF, and continuous AMC monitoring for ambient HCl, HF, and NH3.
Specialty gases of superior quality play a vital role as raw materials and process gases across various industries. From carbon dioxide in beverages to ammonia in LED manufacturing and silane in semiconductor fabrication, maintaining high purity standards for specialty gases is critical. The presence of moisture impurities, for instance, can significantly impact the efficiency of resulting LEDs. The semiconductor industry demands ultra-high purity gases, whether it’s silane or germane for epitaxy, fluorine compounds for etching processes, or cleaning gases. Process Insights offers highly sensitive, accurate, and user-friendly analysis instruments. These instruments utilize the renowned Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy (CRDS) technique and cater to a wide range of specialty gases and applications.

CONTINUOUS QUALITY CONTROL (CQC) IN THE SEMICONDUCTOR INDUSTRY
Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy (CRDS) gas analyzers from Process Insights have a long history in industrial gas, medical gas, and chemical processing, enabling the detection of moisture and other rogue impurities in process gas streams, including inert, reactive, corrosive, bulk, and specialty gases.
Cavity Ring-Down Spectroscopy (CRDS) Technology delivers a highly sensitive and precise analytical technique used for the detection and measurement of trace gases and isotopes in a sample. It is a non-destructive technique that provides quantitative measurements of molecular absorption spectra.
T-I MAX X3 Airborne Molecular Contaminant (AMC) MONITORING SOLUTION
Simultaneously Monitor HF, HCl, and NH3 in Real-Time – Next-Generation Trace Gas Analyzers for Detection & Continuous Monitoring of Airborne Molecular Contaminants in Semiconductor Cleanrooms, FOUP Cleaning Tools, Reticle Nests and Sub Fab Environments. You can spend a long time “looking” for Airborne Molecular Contaminants (AMCs) when the catastrophic product performance or yield loss is discovered at your device final test stage; or you can deploy our T-I Max™ series analyzers to locate and to monitor these invisible defect generators, commonly found lurking in and around equipment, personnel, wafer carriers and cleanroom bays.
