Wafer Contact Angle Measuring Instrument is a precision testing device used to evaluate wafer surface wettability, cleanliness, and surface energy status. It mainly works by dispensing micro-volume droplets onto the wafer surface, capturing the droplet profile, and calculating indicators such as static contact angle, dynamic wetting parameters, and surface free energy. The device can be used to study wafer surface cleanliness and determine the removal of contaminants and residues; it can also be used to determine surface free energy and analyze the interaction between wafers and photoresists, cleaning liquids, bonding adhesives, and coating materials. In addition, it can help assess surface adhesion and coating compatibility, study hydrophilic/hydrophobic changes, and serve as a quality control tool to monitor the consistency of wafer surface conditions after process treatment. The device features optical non-contact imaging, small droplet consumption, fast testing speed, good repeatability, and a high degree of automation, enabling rapid evaluation of surface treatment effects and process stability with minimal risk of wafer surface damage.

Its upstream mainly includes high-resolution cameras, optical lenses, precision dispensing systems, automatic wafer stages, motion control modules, image recognition software, contact angle fitting algorithms, and cleanroom-compatible structural components. Its downstream mainly covers Integrated Circuit, Power Semiconductor, Advanced Packaging, Optoelectronic Device, MEMS Device, and Other fields, where it is commonly used for surface condition evaluation in process steps such as wafer cleaning, plasma treatment, pre-coating treatment, thin film deposition, temporary bonding, hybrid bonding, and surface modification.
