Attolight CL / Analytical Services : Get an immediate and easy
access to critical data to boost your material research programs
Attolight has developed breakthrough technology in cathodoluminescence which will open
a new area of investigation in semiconductor material research. Attolight now offers immediate
access to data that will significantly impact your processes, your technological research and
development roadmap.
Q. Why does Attolight, an equipment manufacturer, provide analytical and consulting services
A. Typically in response to one of two situations :
a → Our client needs to push forward their research or process development but
has no budget to add capital equipment :
– Your current characterization methods do not allow you to achieve a full understanding
of your material system or structure, perhaps cathodoluminescence will
fill in the gaps and allow you to reach clear conclusions.
– You have come up against a specific process (or quality) issue and would like to see
if cathodoluminescence could provide the information needed to solve the issue.
– You already use photoluminescence technique but have found you need a higher
spatial resolution or sensitivity to acquire the data you really need.
b → Our client is making (or has made) a case for capital funding confident that
high reso lution CL is a game changing technology for their research and process
development.
– You are confident, but your funding authorities still demand proof in the form
of preliminary results showing the type of data that can not be obtained by other
methods available to you.
– You have a material/device with unique properties, you believe high resolution
CL will provide the key data with which you can explain those properties in order
to win funding for further development of your new material/device.
– You have applied for funding but it will take many months to arrive, you need
to push the research forward to maintain your lead until the Attolight system
is delivered.
Our laboratory in Switzerland provides analytical testing services and solutions, using the latest
cathodoluminescence technology developed by Attolight. Our solutions enables the characterization
of a variety of nano scale structures including : nanoparticles, nanotubes, quantum
dots, defects, dopant inclusions, silicon wafer and ingot quality control for PV applications, GaN
wafer quality control for LED and power devices. Attolight has also developed a proprietary
solution to count the threading dislocation densities on wafers, offering a significant cost ownership
benefit over the traditional TEM method.
