Manufacturer of gas-based laser analyzers, Tiger Optics has planned to showcase a new laser-based gas analyzer at the Semicon West Expo that will take place in San Francisco.
The LaserTrace 3TM trace gas analyzer is used for detecting methane, oxygen, and moisture, in addition to other kinds of analyte contaminants.
The company vends laser-based gas analyzers to purifier manufacturers, tool manufacturers, and semiconductor manufacturers. Contamination in process gases negatively impacts the deposition procedures while manufacturing semiconductors. This results in a reduction of product yield. The LaserTrace 3TM trace gas analyzer solves this problem by enabling the user to scrutinize for intrusions at high levels.
The company’s Chief Executive, Lisa Bergson stated that various semiconductor manufacturers have utilized the company’s CW-CRDS technology because of its low cost of ownership, ease of use, and high detection range. Bergson added that the LaserTrace gas analyzer would enable customers to improve their gas detection capabilities. The LaserTrace platform has been used in semiconductor applications because of its low cost-of-ownership and flexibility. It accommodates a maximum of four sensor units in a 19” rack. The platform also allows the placement of individual sensor modules from a distance of 200 ft. The company has also introduced the LaserTrace O2 oxygen analyzer in 2005 and the LaserTrace+ analyzer in 2008.
