Optical Aligner System (NxQ / Neutronix Quintel)

By Obducat Group

Obducat has received an order from a customer in Europe for an optical aligner system delivered by the company's American partner NxQ (Neutronix Quintel). The order value amounts to SEK 4.8 million and delivery is expected to take place during the first half of 2026. Obducat acts as distributor in the transaction and receives a lower margin compared to sales of the company's own lithography systems. The ordered system is an advanced optical lithography system configured for multiple types of UV-based resist exposure, including high-precision...

Coater Module – Rotating Covered Chuck Technology (RCCT™)

Obducat’s revolutionary Rotating Covered Chuck Technology (RCCT™) process environment design provides for: - A completely sealed solvent saturated atmosphere - Minimal turbulence around the substrate eliminating rotational corner effects on squared substrates, enabling industry leading uniformity across the entire substrate at lower spin speeds. - Superior coating uniformity on submicron layers as well as for thick resist layers compared to open bowl. - Reduced process cost and improved environmental profile by lowering material consumption. - Elimination of Backside Rinse (BSR).
