Cleanroom Monitoring
What's in your fab air? Detect production-critical compounds simultaneously and continuously. Airborne molecular contaminants can be monitored in real-time using a SIFT-MS trace gas analyzer. VOC detection and inorganic acid identification are performed more easily and rapidly than any other existing technology.
The broadest range of high sensitivity AMC detection by a single instrument
Successful fabrication of semiconductors, photovoltaics and LCD/LED panels requires extremely high-precision manufacturing equipment, operated in an ultra-clean environment. Volatile or semi-volatile contaminants in the production environment can degrade semiconductor performance and/or greatly shorten expensive maintenance cycles or operational service of fabrication equipment. SIFT-MS technology provides rapid, high-sensitivity analysis of the widest range of airborne molecular contaminants (AMCs) available to the semiconductor industry, greatly reducing product loss and equipment failure.
Benefits of SIFT-MS for Cleanroom Monitoring
A single instrument to monitor for a broad range of chemically diverse AMCs
Simple integration with existing sample delivery infrastructure (single or multiple point)
24/7 operation with minimal downtime (<1% downtime for validation)
High selectivity and sensitivity (detection limits in pptV range)
Real-time AMC monitoring provides instant feedback on contamination events

Semiconductor AMC Monitoring
The unique attributes of SIFT-MS enable the speciation and quantitation of volatile compounds in real-time, providing a single solution for online monitoring of clean room relevant organic and inorganic airborne molecular contaminants (AMCs) down to parts-per-trillion by volume (pptv) levels in semiconductor fabs. Learn how to detect AMCs when they happen and never miss a contamination event again.
Cleanroom Air Quality Monitoring
SIFT-MS is a unique analytical solution that provides comprehensive, high-sensitivity detection of volatile organic and inorganic gases (including HCl, HF, and SOx) within seconds. As a single, comprehensive instrument with rapid analysis, SIFT-MS provides great economic benefit. This webinar describes the application of SIFT-MS to AMC monitoring – from the front-opening unified pod (FOUP) to the clean room.
Semiconductor Bulk Gas Analysis
Real-time monitoring of gas streams using selected ion flow tube mass spectrometry (SIFT-MS) provides continuous product quality feedback. This application note describes how SIFT-MS SCAN analysis coupled with multivariate statistical analysis readily detects untargeted defects in semiconductor manufacturing “bulk gas.”
SIFT-MS Selected Ion Flow Tube Mass Spectrometry
Learn about direct mass spectrometry by SIFT-MS which provides real-time, quantitative analysis of volatile compounds with trace-level sensitivity. There are also no requirements of chromatography, pre-concentration, or sample prep! SIFT-MS is easy to use and interpret data.
