100GigE Camera Applications and Customer Results

Semiconductor Metrology

The Advanced Research Center for Nanolithography (ARCNL) is working to solve a major problem for the semiconductor industry related to vibration. Using a ZENITH 100GigE camera, they have developed a method to overcome the inherent sensitivities in the kinds of interferometric techniques an equipment maker will need to ensure accuracy in chip manufacturing.

ZENITH 100GigE camera helps ARCNL in the Netherlands solve vibration issues related to semiconductor manufacturing.

Biomedical Imaging

Researchers at Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam are pioneering a novel imaging technique known as phototransient holographic imaging, which provides unprecedented insights into living cells. Central to this advancement is the HZ-21000-G 100GigE camera from Emergent.
