Features

Continuous capability and speed

The 4 kW SST-mAX X-ray tube features groundbreaking ZETA technology which drastically reduces the effects of X-ray tube aging. This ‘new tube’ performance is maintained throughout the tube’s lifetime, and together with high sensitivity, ZETA technology ensures that rapid analysis and short measurement times are upheld throughout the tube’s lifetime. ZETA technology robustly reduces the need for drift correction and recalibration, which increases productivity and uptime of the instrument.

Maximized uptime

Conventional X-ray tubes suffer tungsten evaporation, which causes deposits on the inside of the tube’s beryllium window. Instrumentation using such X-ray tubes requires regular drift correction to compensate for decreasing intensity, especially for light elements. 

Implementation of the SST-mAX Tube in the 2830 ZT solves this drift problem, thereby maximizing uptime and maintaining instrument precision over time.

Easy to use

The 2830 ZT is supplied with the advanced SuperQ software, which includes FP Multi, the software package specifically designed for multi-layer analysis. The software’s user interface ensures that even inexperienced operators can carry out fully automated fundamental parameter analysis of multi-layers.
The instrument's SuperQ software has a wide range of easy-to-use modules designed for flexible operation by researchers and engineers. Switching between recipes is easy, as is adjusting equipment parameters to suit user preferences.

FALMO-2G

The FALMO-2G easily integrates into any lab or fab: from simple manual carrier loading to full automation. A fully flexible design enables the fab manager to choose from FOUP, SMIF or open cassette load ports, with either a single or dual load port configuration. The various configurations FALMO-2G are all supported by GEM300 compliant software. The footprint of the FALMO-2G has been minimized without compromising flexibility, functionality

Software

DifferAction

An automated solution for low-interference XRF analysis

DifferAction is an optional extension for our Wafer Analyzer 2830 ZT spectrometer platform with SuperQ software, which enables automatic wafer angle optimization for more accurate XRF analysis.

ToolMatch

Enabling consistent results across multiple instruments

As an additional package for our Wafer Analyzer 2830 ZT platform with SuperQ software, ToolMatch makes consistent results across your equipment simple.

By calculating the regression of systematic differences in semiconductor analysis, this software enables automatic results tuning, based on the ToolMatch correction between Wafer Analyzers. It is the ideal solution for ensuring consistent results both within and across sites.
