The BASIC series is an integrated equipment for EUV mask backside inspection and cleaning. It plays an important role in EUV mask quality management, maintaining mask performance by detecting and removing foreign particles and contamination attached to the mask backside.
With the practical application of EUV lithography, stricter requirements are being demanded for EUV mask quality management. The BASIC series provides high-precision inspection functions and effective cleaning functions to meet these requirements.
