Molly Growth Control Software
- Monitoring and Control
Molly interfaces with system components including power supplies, RHEED, pyrometers, and other in-situ monitoring tools. System status including temperatures, pressures, and positions are shown clearly, and control setpoints can be set directly.
Alarms alert users to abnormal conditions, and can be used to prevent recipes
- Growth Recipe Editor
Easily create growth recipes using the epitaxy-specific recipe editor with easy-to-use recipe building blocks. More complex routines can be created using the power of MollyScript™, Molly’s built in scripting language.
- EpiTrendâ„¢ Data Recorder and Viewer
EpiTrend is an always on data recorder and viewer. Every status and control signal in the system is continuously recorded. Data can be viewed and compared using the built-in viewer.
Data can also be exported for use in external analysis.
Lot Manager Scheduling Software
- Automated platen transfers
Lot sheets schedule platen transfers and recipe execution. Highly flexible lot sheets enable customized module sequences. Optional dependencies allow for synchronizing critical processes.
Transfer optimization enhances throughput with parallel operation, running recipes in multiple modules at the same time.
- Manual operations
Manual platen transfers are a quick and easy drag-and-drop operation. Manual module operations are accessed directly from the module operation controls.
- System status
The customizable overview screen shows platen locations, slit valve status, module status, and other control signal information.
- EpiMoveâ„¢ Manual System Control
Manual and maintenance control where you need it. EpiMove runs on a portable and rugged handheld computer.
