Effective Slurry Concentration Monitoring Using Refractive Index

Recorded webinar

Understanding the amount of solids in slurry is critical to determining an accurate material removal rate (MRR) for CMP solutions. Index of refraction (IoR) technology enables concentration monitoring of turbid and nonconductive materials. 

Entegris is introducing a new liquid concentration monitor based on IoR technology that offers high accuracy and repeatability with an optional automated in situ window cleaner to ensure stability over time. 

Join Tracy Gast, global product applications engineer, as he discusses: 

  • Index of refraction technology
  • Performance of our new InVue® GV148 liquid concentration monitor in slurry
  • Slurry baseline testing with automated in situ window cleaner
