What it is

The ASML 300 C is a model of semiconductor manufacturing equipment built by ASML.[1][2]

How it works

The ASML PAS 5500/300C uses a phase-grating alignment system that is process-insensitive, requiring only two alignment marks for the entire wafer processing sequence.[3]

The PAS 5500/300C incorporates an AERIAL Illuminator that allows resolution extendibility beyond 0.25 µm.[3]

Where it fits in the process flow

The ASML PAS 5500/300C occupies the lithography segment of semiconductor fabrication, where it performs photolithographic exposure.[3]

One or more coat-develop tracks are typically coupled to the stepper to apply photoresist before exposure and to develop the wafer after exposure.[3]

After development the wafer moves to inspection and then to subsequent etch or deposition steps.[3]

Applications

The ASML PAS 5500/300C is used for photolithographic exposure in the manufacture of integrated circuits.[3]

The system is suitable for a range of applications from telecommunication components to application-specific integrated circuits.[3]
