The acquisition adds to Bruker\u2019s leadership position in automated atomic force microscopy (AFM) for semiconductor photomask and wafer metrology. The combined offering uniquely positions Bruker\u2019s Semiconductor division to offer unmatched solutions for nanomachining mask repair and cleaning, as well as metrology for advanced nodes for EUV and multi-patterning lithography. <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\">\u201cThe control of pattern defects is the most critical issue for production of high-end photomasks with decreasing feature size and increasing mask complexity,\u201d said Barry Hopkins, CEO of RAVE. \u201cOur new nm-VI photomask repair system is our sixth generation of high-precision nanomachining technology utilizing the advantages of AFM to repair masks for 10 and 7 nm nodes. We are excited to now be able to take advantage of Bruker\u2019s unrivalled AFM expertise and global sales and service reach to take the next step in supporting the semiconductor industry\u2019s technology roadmap.\u201d <\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p style=\"margin-bottom:.0001pt\"><span style=\"line-height:normal\">\u201cRAVE has been a leading enabler of repair and cleaning of today\u2019s complex masks, including multi-patterned 193 nm masks, and the transition to EUV,\u201d added David V.
