FBH orders WEP CVP21 wafer ECV-profiler

WEP (Wolff für Elektronik- und Programmentwicklungen) of Furtwangen im Schwarzwald, Germany has received an order from the Ferdinand-Braun-Institut für Höchstfrequenztechnik (FBH) for a Wafer ECV-Profiler CVP21. The profiler will be installed in an FBH clean room close to the organisation’s nitride growth equipment.

Thomas Wolff, president of WEP, said: “The CVP21 is an advanced equipment to monitor the quality of semiconductor layers and includes comprehensive self-calibration algorithms to achieve results with high reliability. Ferdinand-Braun-Institut is recognized for its profound knowledge in the field of ECV profiling and WEP is proud to support this prestigious institution in the development of exciting new devices in the field of microwave electronics and optoelectronics.”

A fully automated system for carrier concentration profiling, the CVP21 automates the entire measurement process, including automated fluid handling, automated movement of the electrochemical cell, automated in-situ imaging and automated CV scan analysis to produce reproducible measurement results with high accuracy. It contains a patented process for the processing of (Al,In)GaN samples in full-automation mode.

The CVP21 has a footprint of 60(W) x 80(D) x 195(H)cm, and is also available as a table-top unit.

As well as its CVP21 wafer profiler, WEP offers process control systems and software.
