A new technical paper titled “Scanning electron microscopy-based automatic defect inspection for semiconductor manufacturing: a systematic review” was published by researchers at KU Leuven and imec.

Unlike optical microscopy, SEM does not rely on light waves but instead uses a beam of electrons to interact with materials, enabling magnifications up to 300,000× and resolutions approaching 1 nm. 1 ...

Raman analysis works by shining a laser on a sample and detecting the inelastically scattered photons. The resulting Raman spectrum provides information about the molecular structure and composition ...

When using an analytically equipped scanning electron microscope (SEM), you aim to collect useful information from your samples. This entails asking particular questions based on your application. For ...
