AI plays a role in improving defect capture rate and distinguishing between yield-killing and nuisance defects. New developments in wafer edge inspection are proving essential to bonded wafer yields.
In biology, defects are generally bad. But in materials science, defects can be intentionally tuned to give materials useful new properties. Today, atomic-scale defects are carefully introduced during ...
A new model measures defects that can be leveraged to improve materials' mechanical strength, heat transfer, and energy-conversion efficiency. (Nanowerk News) In biology, defects are generally bad.
Photo-induced force microscopy (PiFM) is a sophisticated nanoscale characterization approach that combines the elevated spatial resolution of atomic force microscopy (AFM) with infrared (IR) ...
