Pixer and Marketech Sign Representative Agreement
March 21, 2007
Marketech International Corporation to Distribute Critical Dimension Control Systems of Pixer Technology in Taiwan, China and Singapore
Karmiel, Israel – March 21, 2007 – Pixer Technology Ltd. (Pixer), a provider of laser-based yield enhancement tools for the semiconductor manufacturing industry, and Marketech International Corporation (MIC) announced they have signed a representative agreement. Under this agreement, Marketech will sell the Pixer Critical Dimension Control (CDC) tools of Pixer to semiconductor and mask manufacturers in Taiwan, China and Singapore.
“We are pleased to add Pixer’s CDC101 Critical Dimension Control system to our product portfolio,” said Mr. Scott Lin, President of Marketech International Corporation. “This partnership is a rare opportunity to add a solution for an unsolved problem in the industry. We sense CDC101, Pixer’s current tool, provides a cost-effective solution to both IC manufacturers and Mask makers.”
CDC101 is an industry-first solution for CDC, improving global and local CDU across masks and wafers. CDC101 modifies the mask transmission in order to modify and correct the CD on the wafer resist. Deep UV transmittance of the mask is selectively and locally altered by partially scattering shading elements (Shade-In Element™) inside the quartz. This creates local pixels with a different refractive index relative to the quartz. An array of such pixels with a constant density constitutes one shading element. Optical CD systems, CD SEM or reticle AIMS™ predetermine the required corrections.
