Customer-specific Developments

At RI, we provide more than just off-the-shelf solutions. A core part of our business is to develop, design, manufacture, test and deliver systems and components tailored to the needs of our customers. With an established network of experienced partners, our developments are based on well-proven building blocks and components, backed by our experience in fast realization from drafted demands to dedicated tool operation at customers’ site.

Our research and application laboratories support such developments by enabling proof of concepts or tests of critical components with available EUV-sources, components and test installations.

The XUV-SPM

The XUV Spectrophotometer (XUV-SPM) is designed to meet the demand of research and early developments of EUV components with in-house stand alone actinic EUV metrology laboratory installation which is flexible to covering wide ranges of sample sizes, angle of incidence and spectral band. It is based on using laboratory Extreme Ultraviolet (XUV) source technology for analytic applications. XUV-SPM is specialized for performing spectral resolved characterization toward optical elements, thin films and multilayer structures.

The XUV-SPM allows to measures in a wide spectral ranges, of 2 nm - 40 nm (50 eV- 500 eV). Using the XUV-SPM standalone solution, allows the transfer of many experiments which are routinely being performed at beamlines to the individual laboratories.
