We will identify and observe the defective areas of power devices such as diodes, MOS-FETs, and IGBTs.

We perform optimal preprocessing for power devices such as diodes, MOS FETs, and IGBTs of all sizes and shapes, and identify and observe defective areas through backside IR-OBIRCH analysis and backside emission analysis. ■ Preprocessing for analysis - Backside polishing - We accommodate various sample forms. Si chip size: 200um to 15mm square ■ Defective area identification - Backside IR-OBIRCH analysis and backside emission analysis - IR-OBIRCH analysis: Supports up to 100mA/10V and 100uA/25V Emission analysis: Supports up to 2kV * We address a wide range of defect characteristics such as low-resistance shorts, micro leaks, and high voltage breakdown failures. ■ Pinpoint cross-sectional observation of leak areas - SEM/TEM - We select SEM or TEM observation based on the predicted defects and can conduct physical observation and elemental analysis of leak defect areas with precision.

TEM (Transmission Electron Microscope) meets a wide range of requirements for observing failure sites of electronic components, length measurements, elemental analysis, crystal structure analysis, and material evaluation.

TEM can perform not only high-magnification observation but also elemental analysis using EDS and EELS, as well as analysis of crystal structure, surface orientation, lattice constants, and more through electron diffraction.

Since semiconductors have different physical properties, new methods are required for failure analysis!

Our company conducts OBIRCH analysis of SiC devices using short-wavelength lasers. SiC is a power device with less energy loss compared to conventional Si semiconductors and is attracting attention. However, since its physical properties differ from those of Si semiconductors, new methods are required for failure analysis. In the backside OBIRCH analysis of SiC-SBD using short-wavelength lasers, localized melting damage was induced in the SiC Schottky barrier diode, resulting in the generation of pseudo-leaks. Locations of pseudo-leaks that could not be confirmed in the IR-OBIRCH analysis were clearly observed in the GL-OBIRCH analysis. *For more details, please refer to the PDF materials or feel free to contact us.

Pre-processing of SiC devices → Identification of leakage points → Physical analysis/component analysis handled seamlessly!

Our company conducts "Backside Emission Analysis of SiC Devices." SiC is a power device with less energy loss compared to conventional Si semiconductors and is attracting attention. However, due to its different physical properties from Si semiconductors, new methods are required for failure analysis. In a case study of backside emission analysis of SiC MOSFETs, an overseas SiC MOSFET was subjected to ESD, creating a G-(D,S) leakage, and numerous emissions indicating the leakage points were detected through emission analysis. When the emission points were observed using TEM, destruction of the SiO2 film and damage to the SiC crystal were noted. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact on the base material. Repairs can be carried out in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.
