anometrics Incorporated (NASDAQ: NANO), a leading provider of advanced process control

metrology systems, announced that a leading manuf- acturer of advanced logic devices has taken delivery of its next generation UniFire™ 7900IR metrology system for 3D inspection of wafer-scale packaging features as well as registration for wafer-to-wafer bonding applications for use in advanced wafer scale packaging process control.

“Careful control of lithography and etching in the Through Silicon Via (TSV) flow, bumping, and wafer- to-wafer bonding processes is critical to enable high yielding devices for next generation advanced pa- ckaging. This latest system offers a new 3D inspec- tion capability as well as an infra-red (IR) microscope option allowing direct measurement of features and structures in bonded wafer stacks, effectively see- ing through the wafers,” commented Dr. Michael Darwin, Vice President of the UniFire and Materials Characterization Groups at Nanometrics.

Existing UniFire systems can be field upgraded with both IR and 3D inspection options to further extend the capability of installed tools. Furthermore, Nano- metrics announced the launch and delivery to a leading Asian memory customer of the Mosaic™ II, its newest turnkey image-based overlay metrology solution for advanced high-volume IC manufacturing. The Mosaic II is the latest overlay metrology system in a series of products designed as part of Nanome- trics’ Lynx™ cluster metrology platform. A leading Japanese semiconductor company has selected its IMPULSE®

integrated metrology (IM)

solution for process control of advanced chemical mechanical polishing (CMP) applications to be de- ployed as part of its new fab build-out. The selection

expands on the recent order by the same customer for Nanometrics’ Lynx™ cluster metrology platform equipped with IMPULSE systems, which was selected for in-line optical critical dimension (OCD) control of etch and lithography applications. http://www.nanometrics.com

anoPhotonica has perfected realizable, breakthrough QLED display technology that

it is commercializing for mass production. The Company’s S-QLED technology improves on the picture quality and power consumption achieved by recently introduced OLED displays, while significant- ly reducing cost and improving lifetime well beyond what OLED can achieve. NanoPhotonica is currently working with several leading display manufacturers to commercialize devices based on its proprietary tech- nology. Work at independent laboratories previously identified key performance advantages.

NanoPhotonica, based in Orlando, FL, USA, brings innovative nanomaterials and production techniques to enable market-altering improvements to a range of photoelectric applications, including displays, solar panels and other electronic device industries. http://www.nanophotonica.com
