Event Overview:

This event will investigate how various broadband spectrometers and spectral components can come together to optimize Optical Emission Spectroscopy (OES) for the semiconductor industry. Coating and etching processes deal with a range of plasmas and operating conditions depending on the specific application, and there are better and worse options for those scenarios when choosing and implementing spectral monitors. By looking at resolution, sensitivity, spectral range, and various software settings, the audience will gain unique and valuable knowledge around end-point detection, plasma and impurity identification, and the extra benefits of NIR-detection many may not be aware of today.


Key Learning Objectives:

  • Learn how to prioritize resolution and sensitivity for various OES scenarios.
  • Understand how plasma power affects resulting spectral outputs.
  • Know the importance of software parameters for time-resolved end-point detection.

Who Should Attend:

  • Anyone working in the semiconductor market
  • Researchers in semiconductor and plasma fields
