Probe Station
AET, Inc.
The Probe station developed by AET, Inc. has a probing stage and a micro positioner that can be adjusted on the X-Y-Z-theta directions, and can probe samples of various shapes and sizes. A custom designed probing fixture allows the use of air coplanar, semi-rigid, or differential active probes. A TRL/LRM calibration kit are designed and manufactured. The probe station can be used for various measurements and calibrations on a semiconductor wafer up to a RF circuit.

Micro Psitioner
The micro positioner provides high precision positionings on straight motions of XYZ and rotational motions of theta 1 and 2. Each axis of XYZ has a micrometer that can be fine-adjusted. A parallel adjustment of a probe can be performed by a clamp screw roughly, and by theta 1 and 2 accurately. The alignment of these five axes enables to establish a high-level measurement environment. This micro positioner provides 8 types of positioners to fit to a coaxial, multi-pin types and other types of probes. It can be utilized under the severe measurement condition which does not allow even the slightest gap between a probe and the sample to be measured.
