Business Summary
Therma-Wave, Inc. is in the development, manufacture, marketing and service of process control metrology systems used in the manufacture of semiconductors. Process control metrology is used to monitor process parameters in order to enable semiconductor manufacturers to maintain high overall manufacturing yield, reduce the size of the circuit features imprinted on the semiconductor to improve the performance of the semiconductor device and increase their equipment productivity. The Company's current product families, Therma-Probe, Opti-Probe, Opti-Probe CD, Meta-Probe X and Integra, use proprietary and patented technology to provide precise, non-contact, non-destructive measurement for each and every basic building block (process module) in the manufacture of integrated circuits.
