Precision at the Nanometer Scale
Fiber Optic Solutions
Optical Fibers for Precision in Micro-
and Nanostructuring
Semiconductor manufacturing demands absolute accuracy: every light pulse must be perfectly aligned with maximum precision. Our optical fibers for the semiconductor industry meet these requirements reliably, as processes such as lithography, wafer inspection, plasma etching or deposition place extreme demands on transmission stability and durability. Even minor deviations can affect process quality and lead to costly production issues.
Typical Fiber Requirements
- High transmission in the UV and VUV range
- Reliable performance under cleanroom conditions
- Stable operation with high laser power in continuous use
- Resistance to thermal and chemical stress
