Public Slide 16 October 18, 2017 • We shipped the first product that was jointly developed with the engineering team of HMI, which ASML acquired last year. The product, ePfm5, is a pattern fidelity metrology tool that offers our customers enhanced capabilities for detecting patterning defects • E-beam is the preferred solution for sub-10nm defect detection providing data for process control, as optical inspection is challenged by sensitivity and nuisance defects • Guiding the e-beam system to areas of interest increases the effective throughput to a level required for volume production Pattern Fidelity Metrology: high capture rate of defects at a throughput supporting volume production ePfm5
