What it is

The KLA HRP 340 Thickness Measurement is a metrology and inspection tool used in semiconductor manufacturing.[2]

The tool measures wafer thickness for wafers of up to 12-inch diameter.[1][2]

How it works

General reference — not yet source-verified

Thickness measurement tools of this class operate by applying a known force to a diamond-tipped stylus and recording vertical displacement as the stylus moves laterally across the substrate.

Where it fits in the process flow

General reference — not yet source-verified

Thickness measurement tools are used after deposition, chemical-mechanical planarization, or etch steps to verify that film thicknesses remain within process specifications and to provide feedback for process control.

Applications

General reference — not yet source-verified

Precision profilometers of this class are used for measuring step heights, film stress, and surface roughness on product wafers as well as on monitor or test wafers during process development and production monitoring.
