Product Overview
thin yellow rule
<empty>
Measuring as-grown blocks provides the best indication of final wafer lifetime.The SBS-150 bulk-silicon lifetime analyzer is especially sensitive to lifetime variations in the growth direction of silicon ingots, giving an accurate preview of wafer quality and propagation defects.
<empty>
It addition, the SBS-150 offers the only lifetime scan with a lifetime measurement range of several orders of magnitude – a feature that is typical of Sinton Instruments true bulk lifetime characterization.
