The Thermo Scientific Hyperion II System offers fast, accurate transistor probing for electrical characterization and fault localization in support of semiconductor technology development, yield engineering and device reliability improvement. The unparalleled stability of the Hyperion II System enables nanoprobing down to the 5 nm technology node and beyond.
The Hyperion II System’s SPM technology enables PicoCurrent imaging, which is a technique to rapidly identify shorts, opens, leakage paths and resistive contacts with more than 1,000 times the sensitivity of passive voltage contrast. The scanning capacitance microscopy (SCM) module provides image-based fault localization for silicon on insulator (SOI) wafers, as well as high-resolution dopant profiling.
