We have developed a new fully automated and cleanroom compatible TOF-SIMS tool with FOUP loading for 300 mm wafer inspection. The instrument and its automation is designed to apply a variety of recipes for various analytical tasks. We will describe the instrument performance and discuss various applications of this tool in semiconductor industry like trace metal detection, detection of organic contaminants, analysis of gate dielectrics and ultra-shallow implant dosimetry.
