November 29, 2007 (PRLEAP.COM) Technology News
AUSTIN, Texas – NexTech Solutions, Inc. (Pink Sheets: NXSN), is pleased to announce that it will be joining Hakuto Co., Ltd., one of the most highly respected distributors and manufacturers in the electronics industries, at the upcoming SEMICON Japan 2007 exhibition and conference scheduled for Dec. 5-7, 2007 in Chiba, Japan. The company will be co-exhibiting under the name NexTech FAS.

NexTech FAS will be promoting the Aludra, an advanced tool for ‘macro’ inspection of semiconductor reticles prior to their use in step & repeat systems within the photolithography bay of semiconductor fabrication operations. The Aludra simultaneously scans both the glass side and pellicle side of semiconductor reticles in as little as 35 seconds. The company will also be displaying the ORION, a fully automated semiconductor reticle inspection system. The ORION system features the Aludra reticle inspection tool as its core scanning module and offers the customer completely automated pod opening, reticle handling and management. Both Aludra and ORION systems detect surface-sitting defects on reticle surfaces (pellicle & glass) in the range of 2µ to 10µ, while the system’s high throughput enables 100 percent inspection and qualification of reticles prior to their use in step and repeat process tools.

Hakuto is a Tokyo Stock Exchange listed company (ticker # 7433) with 22 offices and over 1500 employees serving the semiconductor, flat panel display, electronics and related industries.
