BUSINESS SUMMARY
Nanometrics Incorporated, together with its subsidiaries, designs, manufactures, markets, sells, and supports thin film, optical critical dimension, and overlay dimension metrology systems. It offers automated standalone systems, which include manual, semi-automated, and fully automated metrology systems that are used in high and low volume production environments; system platform; and integrated systems that are installed onto wafer processing equipment to provide near real-time measurements for enhanced process control and increasing throughput. The company also provides materials characterization products, including systems that are used to monitor the physical, optical, electrical, and material characteristics of high-brightness light emitting diodes (HB-LED), compound semiconductor, strained silicon, and silicon-on-insulator devices; and tabletop systems, which are used to manually or semi-automatically measure thin films in engineering and low-volume production environments. In addition, Nanometrics offers VerteX, a photoluminescence mapping system for high-volume compound semiconductor metrology applications; RPMBlue, a photoluminescence mapping system designed specifically for the HB-LED segment; FTIR systems, which are spectrometers designed for non-destructive wafer analysis for various applications; SiPHER, an automated photoluminescence metrology system for the detection and mapping of 300 millimeter substrate defects and metallic contamination; and NanoSpec line of products that supports thin film measurement across various segments in low volume production and research applications. Its products are used primarily in manufacturing of semiconductors, solar PVs, and HB-LED, as well as by customers in silicon wafer and data storage industries. The company offers its products through direct sales force and independent sales representatives in Asia, the United States, and Europe. Nanometrics was founded in 1975 and is headquartered in Milpitas, California.
