"I am the Maint. Tool owner of the Rigaku 3640 XRF tool for the last 6 years. I thank you for your service and the quality of the Rigaku product. Working in the semiconductor industry for 14+ years many companies have claimed, promised and failed to deliver on key components that you have exceeded on. Great product I would recommend to a friend and a peer."

WDA-3640 mapping XRF metrology tool

The Rigaku wafer/disk analyzer (WDA) was first developed in 1977. Today more than 350 systems have been installed around the world. The history of this analyzer directly reflects that of thin film device development in the semiconductor industry.

Our workhorse tool for 200mm (8") and smaller wafers, the WDA-3640 incorporates the our trademark X-Y-θ sample stage system for superior results on difficult measurements, such as ferrodielectric films. In addition, an innovative new X-ray tube design allows for and almost two-fold increase in sensitivity for boron (B) as compared to conventional excitation sources. Furthermore, the WDA-3640 is extremely compact, with the basic unit requiring less than 1 m2 of valuable cleanroom space. And, there is no need for side maintenance service access.
