Åttoscopy™, Inc. is an
early-stage company in Berkeley,
CA with deep expertise in
scanning probe microscopy (SPM). The company is leveraging a set of
patented technologies to develop unique SPM-based imaging solutions for the
semiconductor, biotechnology and research markets. The company’s first product
is the
Åscope™ 1010 running the advanced
ÅProbe™ 7.0 Software
Suite. The platform can support up to
300mm wafers and larger structures with up to 3mm of height variation
across the object. Speed is essentially real time for most actions while
resolution is 1nm in all axis. Relatively
insensitive to thermal drift, and vibration the
instrument can fit in your process on your floor at the cleanliness level
required by your problem. Unique diamond probes
are so reliable and long lived they permit months of metrology without
replacement.
Ångström :
A metric unit of length
convenient for atomic dimensions: a tenth of a nanometer or 100 picometers
(0.1 nm = 100 pm = 1 Å). Unit popular among physicists
but not officially recognized as part of the SI (vide SI unit-naming
conventions) equal to 10-10 m. Abbreviated Å. Named after Anders
Jones Ångström 1814-74 pronounced 'aw[ng]
str[oe]m.
Technically, SI accepts the temporary continued use
of this unit and the liter. This is leading by running out in front of a
moving parade.
attometer 10-18 meter, an
