HILLSBORO,
Oregon and RICHARDSON, Texas, Aug. 4 /PRNewswire/
-- FEI Company (NASDAQ:FEIC) , a world leader in focused
ion beam (FIB) technologies, and Zyvex Corporation,
the nanotechnology commercialization leader, have
signed an agreement to provide real-world solutions
for electrical/IC probing applications.
The agreement calls for the companies to share marketing,
sales, and applications engineering resources to create
new solutions that combine Zyvex's nanomanipulation
and probing technologies with FEI's expertise in analyzing
nanoscale features in complex semiconductor devices.
The need to probe sub-100 nanometer features is relatively
new to the semiconductor industry. Zyvex's NanoWorks(TM)
Product line fulfills that need with nanomanipulation
and probing systems that are compatible with scanning
electron microscopes (SEMs), focused ion beam systems
(FIBS), confocal microscopes, probe stations, and
standard upright and inverted optical microscopes.
"Zyvex is a proven leader in nanotechnology commercialization,
and FEI is a well-known provider of reliable systems
throughout the world," said Thomas A. Cellucci,
Ph.D., Zyvex's President. "Now that we are integrating
our Nanomanipulator and Prober products with FEI's
state-of-the-art focused ion beam systems, our customers
will have with a far more effective solution than
they've ever had before."
FEI's Tools for Nanotech(TM) bring the nanoscale within
the reach of researchers and developers who are working
towards the biggest innovations of the 21st Century.
The combined Zyvex/FEI systems comprise flexible,
cost-effective, modular tools that promote interchangeability
of sample/structure carriers. Combining these with
interchangeable NanoEffector(TM) tools provides a
wide array of experimental options -- whether the
aim is to study meso, micro, nano, or molecular based
structures. For more information, visit http://www.zyvex.com/
