The SC20FAST is a new version of our established SC20 field cancelling system that
has been optimised to cancel the high frequency fields, typically at 9kHz, from robotic wafer transports in 300mm wafer fabs. These fields limit the performance of electron beam tools in the fab and are a barrier to achieving the next semiconductor device CD node.
-
The principle of operation of the SC20FAST is similar to our other field cancelling systems, as on our website: www.spicerconsulting.com
-
The field cancelling cables are installed in the EBeam Tool enclosure (Figs. 1 & 2) or on a frame (Fig. 8) around un-enclosed tools.

The SC20FAST uses our new, 25Hz - 200kHz bandwidth AC field sensor (Fig. 4). The control unit has faster output amplifiers and retuned filters in the feedback loop. An SC20/DCMR sensor (Fig. 5) can be added if DC field cancelling is also required.
