We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "SEM",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Electronicstalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Layout software links up with electron microscope from
Vistec Semiconductor Systems, which we summarised at the time by saying "Layout visualisation software can now be used with scanning electron microscopy to develop test routines for highly accurate measurement of semiconductor masks".
A couple of weeks before,
we featured the news release Low-cost spectrum analyser produces fast results from
Agilent Technologies Europe: "Facing mounting cost-reduction pressure from competition, engineers and technicians need cost-effective instruments to cope with various test applications".
In March 2007, we covered the news from Telit Wireless Solutions
- take a look at M2M specialist links up with manufacturing giant
which says: "A leading global electronics service provider has invested in an M2M specialist and will provide it with long-term manufacturing services".
Take a look also at the news release from Hitachi High-Technologies (Electron Microscopy), Electron microscope has resolution for research,
as well as Detector upgrades microscope performance from AP Technologies,
and Japanese client orders mask metrology systems from Vistec Semiconductor Systems.
